Fetal-onset Alexander disease with radiological-neuropathological correlation.
Article in Pediatric radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Alexander disease is a leukodystrophy caused by mutations in the GFAP gene, primarily affecting the astrocytes. This report describes the prenatal and post-mortem neuroimaging findings in a case of genetically confirmed, fetal-onset Alexander disease with pathological correlation after termination of pregnancy. The additional value of fetal brain magnetic resonance imaging in the third trimester as a complementary evaluation tool to neurosonography is shown for suspected cases of fetal-onset Alexander disease. Diffuse signal abnormalities of the periventricular white matter in association with thickening of the fornix and optic chiasm can point towards the diagnosis. Furthermore, the presence of atypical imaging findings such as microcephaly and cortical folding abnormalities in this case broadens our understanding of the phenotypic variability of Alexander disease.
