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 describe the case of a 7-year-old girl with anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (anti-LGI1) antibodies (Abs) who presented with isolated epileptic seizures. Her refractory focal seizures did not respond to anti-seizure medicines but responded rapidly to immunotherapy. She remained seizure-free at 2 years follow-up. Reviewing the literature, isolated epileptic seizures have not been reported as the phenotype of anti-LGI1 autoimmunity in children. Our study indicated that screening for anti-LGI1 Abs is necessary for children with severe and/or drug-resistant new-onset focal epileptic seizures.
