Establishment of a flow cytometry screening method for patients with glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome.
Article in Molecular genetics and metabolism reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: We assessed the usefulness of flow cytometry as a functional assay to measure glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) levels on the surface of red blood cells (RBCs) from Japanese patients with glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome (Glut1DS). Methods: We recruited 13 genetically confirmed Glut1DS patients with a solute carrier family 2 member 1 ( Results: Relative GLUT1 levels quantified by flow cytometry in 11 of 13 patients with definite Glut1DS were 90% below those of healthy controls. Relative GLUT1 levels were not reduced in two of 13 Glut1DS patients who had a missense mutation and no intellectual disability and one Glut1DS-like patient without an Conclusions: This method to detect GLUT1 levels on RBCs is simple and appears to be an appropriate screening assay to identify severe Glut1DS patients in the early stage before the development of irreversible neurologic damage caused by chronic hypoglycorrhachia.
