An Unexpected Finding of Hepatosplenomegaly in a Pediatric Patient.
Article in Clinical pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder. It is characterized by a deficiency of lysosomal glucocerebrosidase, which results in the accumulation of glycosphingolipid substrates, primarily glucosylceramide, in the phagocyte system. In GD Type 1, the liver, spleen, and bone marrow are typically affected. We report the case of a 7-year-old female with GD Type 1 who presented with hepatosplenomegaly detected incidentally following a motor vehicle accident. She was found to have concomitant thrombocytopenia and Erlenmeyer flask deformities of her lower limbs. Diagnosis was made on the basis of very low leukocyte β-glucocerebrosidase activity and elevated plasma chitotriosidase. DNA mutation studies revealed both c.1226A>G and c.116_1505 deletion (exons 3-11). The patient is currently managed with biweekly intravenous imiglucerase (Cerezyme) replacement therapy. She demonstrated resolution of thrombocytopenia and hepatosplenomegaly at 2-year follow-up. Physicians must consider this rare diagnosis in children presenting with hepatosplenomegaly to prompt timely management.
