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

Grisel's syndrome is a non-traumatic subluxation of the atlantoaxial joint following an inflammatory process in the upper respiratory tract. Patients with Down syndrome have higher risks of developing atlantoaxial instability. This issue is mainly due to low muscle tone, loose ligaments, and alterations to the bone in patients with Down syndrome. Accompaniment of Grisel's syndrome and Down syndrome was not perused in recent investigations. To our knowledge, only one case of Grisel's syndrome in an adult patient with Down syndrome has been reported. In this study, we present a case of Grisel syndrome in a 7-year-old boy with Down syndrome following lymphadenitis. A 7-year-old boy with Down syndrome was admitted to the orthopedic ward of Shariati hospital with a possible diagnosis of Grisel's syndrome and treated with mento-occipital traction for ten days. In this case report, we represent a child with Down syndrome with Grisel's syndrome for the first time. We also imitated a simple and applicable non-surgical treatment for Grisel's syndrome.
