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

We present a patient who developed, after an early-onset, a stable course of spastic paraplegia and ataxia for 4 decades and eventually succumbed to two episodes of postinfectious lactic acidosis. Diagnostic workup including muscle biopsy and postmortem analysis, oxymetric analysis, spectrophotometric enzyme analysis, and MitoExome sequencing revealed a necrotizing leukoencephalomyelopathy due to the so far unreported biallelic variant of the NDUFV1 gene (p.(Pro122Leu)). This case extends our understanding of NDUFV1 variants with a 14-fold longer lifetime than so far reported cases, and will foster sensitivity toward respiratory chain disease also in adult patients with sudden deteriorating neurological deficits.
