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

Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) is a very rare, X-linked psychomotor disability syndrome with delayed myelination, almost exclusively affecting boys. We present a case of a 4-year-old boy with AHDS who was found cyanotic, with intermittent vomiting and paroxysmal convulsions about 4 h after his parents went out, and was then taken to the hospital, where he eventually died the next day. The autopsy revealed foreign bodies in the tiny bronchi and alveoli of the deceased, congestion, and punctate hemorrhage in multiple organs, consistent with the diagnosis of asphyxia. Compared with a normally developing 4-year-old boy, the deceased showed cerebral atrophy and cerebral edema, and Luxol Fast Blue (LFB) stain indicated delayed cerebellar, hippocampal, and basal ganglia development and myelination. A novel frameshift mutation c.584delG in the SLC16A2 gene was detected. Family lineage investigation showed that the mutation was also detected in the deceased's 8-year-old brother and biological mother. The present work enriches the profile mutations in SLC16A2 related to AHDS and emphasizes the importance of autopsy and postmortem genetic analysis in such cases.
