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

backgroundRing chromosome 18 (r[18]) is a rare syndrome in which one or both ends of chromosome 18 are lost and the remaining chromosome rejoins to form ring-shaped figures. It is characterized by developmental delay/cognitive disability, facial dysmorphisms, and immunological problems. The phenotype associated with epilepsy is rare and has not yet been reported in China.

methodsWe report herein the case of a 12-year-old Chinese girl who presented with typical facial dysmorphisms, developmental delay, cognitive disability, hyperactivity, and epilepsy and discuss the clinical features of r(18) syndromes through comparison with previously described cases worldwide.

resultsWe describe the characteristics of all seizures that have been reported in these cases and propose that the appearance of epilepsy in r(18) patients may be associated with the abnormality of chromosome karyotypes. Further studies are warranted to confirm this.
