Diagnostic Considerations in the Epilepsies-Testing Strategies, Test Type Advantages, and Limitations.
Review in Neurotherapeutics : the journal of the American Society for Experimental NeuroTherapeutics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The role of genetics in epilepsy has been recognized for a long time. Over the past decade, genome-wide technologies have identified numerous genes and variants associated with epilepsy. In the clinical setting, a myriad of genetic testing options are available, and a subset of specific genetic diagnoses have management implications. Furthermore, genetic testing can be a dynamic process. As a result, fundamental knowledge about genetics and genomics has become essential for all specialists. Here, we review current knowledge of the genetic contribution to various types of epilepsy, provide an overview of types of genetic variants, and discuss genetic testing options and their diagnostic yield. We also consider advantages and limitations of testing approaches.
