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

While only a few hundred cases have been reported in pediatrics, congenital glucose-galactose malabsorption (GGM) is an extremely rare autosomal-recessive metabolic disorder that is characterized by intractable diarrhea and severe dehydration, which can be life-threatening if not treated appropriately. Due to the rarity of the disease, it is challenging to consider GGM as an initial diagnosis for most clinicians. We report the clinical and diagnostic course of a seven-month-old Saudi infant who presented with severe recurrent episodes of watery diarrhea and failure to thrive in early infancy despite standard treatment. Molecular testing identified that our patient had a compound heterozygous variant in
