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

Inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a unique class of genetic diseases due to mutations in genes involved in key metabolic pathways. The combined incidence of IEM has been estimated to be as high as 1:1000. Urea Cycle disorders (UCD), one class of IEM, can present with cerebral edema and represent a possible target to explore the utility of different neuromonitoring techniques during an hyperammonemic crisis. The last two decades have brought advances in the early identification and comprehensive management of UCD, including further understanding of neuroimaging patterns associated with neurocognitive function. Nonetheless, very important questions remain about the potential acute neurotoxic effects of hyperammonemia to better understand how to treat and prevent secondary brain injury. In this review, we describe existing neuromonitoring techniques that have been used in rare metabolic disorders to assess and allow amelioration of ongoing brain injury. Directions of future research should be focused on identifying new diagnostic approaches in the management of metabolic crises to optimize care and reduce long term morbidity and mortality in patients with IEM.
