An Unusual Presentation of Cardiofaciocutaneous Syndrome Diagnosed Through Whole Genome Sequencing: A Case Report.

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
Cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome is a rare, sporadic disease caused by germline mutations in the Ras/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway. Patients usually present with craniofacial anomalies, cardiac defects, and neurocutaneous abnormalities. The features of cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome overlap with two other syndromes known as Noonan's syndrome and Costello's syndrome. Similarly, those two syndromes are caused by mutations in the Ras/MAPK pathway. The diagnosis of cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome is suspected based on the clinical presentation and confirmed by genetic analysis. We report a case of a seven-month-old boy who presented with complaints of developmental delay, poor weight gain, and seizures. Physical examination revealed several dysmorphic features, including coarse facies, long philtrum, thin upper lip, a broad forehead, and long toes. Neurological examination showed hypotonia in all four limbs, with normal power and reflexes. However, the infant did not have any remarkable cutaneous abnormalities. Whole-exome sequencing picked up a
