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

Micronutrient and vitamin deficiencies in young adults in the United States are relatively rare and often pose a diagnostic challenge. Here, we present the case of a young female who developed acute encephalopathy and muscular weakness two days following an endoscopic procedure performed to investigate the patient's four-month history of intractable nausea, vomiting, dysphagia, and weight loss. She was diagnosed with severe Wernicke encephalopathy due to thiamine deficiency as well as myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The patient's family history revealed an undiagnosed muscular disorder that required her father to ambulate with a wheelchair in the fourth decade of his life. DM1 with 11 trinucleotide repeats of cytosine-thymine-guanine in allele 1 and more than 150 in allele 2 of the
