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

Wilson's disease (WD) is one of the most prevalent genetic conditions in the world. The average onset age ranges between 5 and 35 years. The prognosis tends to be worse if the diagnosis is delayed. Neurocognitive and psychological disorders are the most common extrahepatic manifestations of WD. Moreover, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is discovered to have a significant correlation with neurodegenerative disorders, particularly WD. Several synucleinopathies, including WD, have an early prodromal stage that manifests as RBD or sleep behavior disorder. We hereby present a case of a 14-year-old patient with borderline ceruloplasmin levels and REM sleep disorder as an early manifestation of WD. RBD may be considered one of the earliest manifestations of such disorders and a vital phase of the disease's onset, as the patient may be more responsive to treatment at this point.
