Hemimegalencephaly: Evolution From an Atypical Focal Early Appearance on Fetal MRI to More Conventional MR Findings.

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.
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
Hemimegalencephaly, or unilateral megalencephaly, is a sporadic congenital brain malformation characterized by enlargement of a cerebral hemisphere due to an abnormal proliferation of neurons or glial cells. Hemimegalencephaly is part of a spectrum of disorders, increasingly referred to as mTORopathies, which arise as a result of dysregulation or hyperactivation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-signaling cascade resulting in less restricted cell growth and survival. The resultant cortical disorganization and enhanced neuronal excitability often manifest clinically in the form of seizures. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are often used to characterize hemimegalencephaly. Typical imaging findings seen include diffuse unilateral enlargement of a cerebral hemisphere with overlying cortical malformation and ipsilateral dilation of the lateral ventricle. This paper will review an unusual case of focal hemimegalencephaly diagnosed on prenatal imaging. Initial
