Case Report: Potocki-Lupski Syndrome in Five Siblings.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Potocki-Lupski syndrome (PTLS) is a rare developmental disorder resulting from the partial duplication of the short arm of chromosome 17. Affected children may have hypotonia, facial dysmorphism, or neurological abnormalities. PTLS is also frequently associated with failure to thrive due to swallowing difficulties or growth hormone deficiency. We report the first Romanian family (a mother and her five children) diagnosed with PTLS (17p11.2 microduplication). Fortunately, they present a less severe form of the disease. The neurological manifestations (speech delay, mild intellectual disability) are associated with craniofacial dysmorphism (microcephaly, micrognathia, triangular face, broad forehead, long chin, prominent ears, dolichocephaly, down slanting palpebral fissures). The diagnostic was established using a multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification technique (MLPA) test, which detected the duplication of three regions of the 17p11.2 chromosome (RAI1, DRC3-6, LLGL1-4RA). Children with PTLS have specific phenotypes (craniofacial dysmorphism or neurological manifestations), which must draw the pediatrician's attention to a possible genetic condition. However, every child with this disease is unique and may have a different clinical presentation. A multi-disciplinary team is needed for the management of these patients. The parent's counseling and genetic advice are essential for a family with children with PTLS.
