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

Introduction: Genetic factors are recognized as the major reason for patients with periodic paralysis. The goal of this study was to determine the genetic causes of periodic paralysis in Japan. Methods: We obtained a Japanese nationwide case series of 119 index patients (108 men and 11 women) clinically suspected of periodic paralysis, and a gene panel analysis, targeting Results: From 34 cases, 25 pathogenic/likely pathogenic/unknown significance variants were detected in Discussion: The low molecular diagnostic rate and specific genetic proportion of the present study highlight the etiological complexity of patients with periodic paralysis in Japan.
