A Case of ALG6-CDG with Explosive Onset of Intractable Epilepsy During Infancy.

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
ALG6-CDG is a rare, but second most common, type 1 congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG) caused by a defect in the α-1-3-glucosyltransferase (ALG6) enzyme in the N-glycan assembly pathway. Many mutations have been identified and inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. There are less than 100 ALG6-CDG cases reported, all sharing the phenotype of hypotonia and developmental delay. The majority (perhaps >70%) have seizures, but a minority have intractable epilepsy or epileptic encephalopathy. We report the clinical course, EEG findings, and neuroimaging of a child found to have compound heterozygous alleles c.257 + 5G > A and c.680G > A (p.G227E) who developed explosive onset of intractable epilepsy and epileptic encephalopathy. Initially, CDG was not suspected due to its rarity and lack of multi-organ system involvement, but rapid whole exam sequence (8-day turnaround) revealed the specific diagnosis quickly.
