1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundALG13-CDG belongs to the congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), which is an expanding group of multisystemic metabolic disorders caused by the N-linked, O-linked oligosaccharides, shared substrates, glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors, and dolichols pathways with high genetic heterogeneity. Thus, as far as clinical presentation, laboratory findings, and treatment are concerned, many questions are to be answered. Three individuals presented here may serve as a good example of clinical heterogeneity. This manuscript describes the first metabolomic analysis using NMR in three patients with epileptic encephalopathy due to the recurrent c.320A>G variant in

methodsNuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in conjunction with multivariate and univariate modelling were used to analyze the metabolic profile of the blood serum samples acquired from the studied patients.

resultsThree metabolites were identified as potential biomarkers: betaine, N-acetyl-glycoprotein, and carnitine.

conclusionsSince presented data are the first to be collected so far, they need be verified in further studies. Our intention was to turn attention toward possible CDG-ALG13 laboratory markers that would have clinical significance.
