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

purpose of reviewEtiologic investigations for adults with intellectual disability (ID) pose a special challenge to many adult neurologists. The adaptability of pediatric guidelines for workup of ID to adult populations has not been clearly established. We review the current recommendations on etiologic workup of ID in children and adults and provide initial guidance for adult neurologists who care for individuals with ID of unknown etiology. RECENT

findingsEtiologic workup, including genetic testing, is recommended in individuals with ID of unknown origin. Workup should be guided by a thoughtful history and physical examination, which can help identify certain causes of ID. SUMMARY: Specific diagnoses may help guide management and surveillance of comorbid conditions in individuals with ID. Etiologic investigations of adults with ID include genetic and metabolic testing and brain imaging in the appropriate clinical setting.
