Periventricular nodular heterotopias is associated with mutation at the FLNA locus-a case history and a literature review.
Review in BMC pediatrics, 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
backgroundPeriventricular nodular heterotopia (PNH), associated with FLNA mutations, is a rare clinical condition potentially associated with multiple systemic conditions, including cardiac, pulmonary, skeletal, and cutaneous diseases. However, due to a paucity of information in the literature, accurate prognostic advice cannot be provided to patients with the disease. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 2-year-old female whose PNH was associated with a nonsense mutation in the q28 region of the X chromosome, in exon 31 of FLNA (c.5159dupA). The patient is currently seizure-free and has no congenital heart disease, lung disease or skeletal or joint issues, and her development is normal.
conclusionsFLNA-associated PNH is a genetically-heterogeneous disease, and the FLNA mutation, c.5159dupA (p.Tyr1720*) is a newly identified pathogenic variant. FLNA characterization will help the clinical diagnosis and treatment of PNH and provide individualized genetic counseling for patients.
