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

Seckel syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by facial dysmorphic features known as bird-headed dwarfism. Only about 100 cases have been reported. Cardiac anomalies have been described as a potential association with Seckel syndrome. We report a 21-year-old woman with Seckel syndrome and epilepsy who presented with status epilepticus. She was hypotensive and bradycardic. Her electrocardiogram showed complete heart block. She was placed on transcutaneous pacer with no response. A transvenous pacemaker was placed before inserting a suitable permanent pacemaker for her size. This is the third case of complete heart block associated with Seckel syndrome and raises concern about the potential association.
