Rapid-Onset Obesity Due to Impulsive Food-Seeking Behavior in a Puerto Rican Child With CHRNA7 15q13.3 Microdeletion.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
A microdeletion in the 15q13.3 locus is an exceedingly rare condition affecting the CHRNA7 gene. There have been 11 pediatric cases of this mutation reported worldwide. Clinical characteristics of the 15q13.3 microdeletion are rapid-onset obesity, hypotonia, autism, seizures, congenital cardiac defects, and neuropsychiatric disorders including impulsive hyperphagia. We describe the case of a four-year-old female with CHRNA7 15q13.3 microdeletion presenting with morbid obesity due to impulsive food-seeking behavior. We have also conducted a literature review on 15q13.3 microdeletion and compared the clinical features with other rapid-onset obesity disorders in the pediatric population. The goal of this case report is to increase awareness concerning CHRNA7 15q13.3 microdeletion as part of the differential diagnosis of rapid-onset obesity associated with neuropsychiatric disorders in pediatrics.
