A case of closedlip schizencephaly with absent septum pellucidum in an adult presenting with seizure disorder.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Key Clinical Message: To rule out underlying developmental brain defects such as schizencephaly, pediatric seizures necessitate a thorough examination. Adults who receive a diagnosis later in life may face severe management and prognosis difficulties. To avoid underdiagnosis of developing brain abnormalities, imaging should be a part of the workup for pediatric seizures. Imaging is critical to the diagnosis and therapy of such cases. Abstract: Closed-lip schizencephaly with the absence of the septum pellucidum is a rare congenital malformation of the brain that can be associated with a variety of neurological conditions. We report the case of a 25-year-old male with left hemiparesis who presented with recurrent seizures from childhood, poorly controlled with medications, and increased tremors. He has been taking anticonvulsant for the last 7 years and is under symptomatic management. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed closed-lip schizencephaly with absent septum pellucidum.
