Juvenile Huntington's Disease: A Case Report and a Review of Diagnostic Challenges.
Article in Cureus, 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
Juvenile Huntington's Disease (JHD) is a rare variant of the hereditary neurodegenerative disorder Huntington's disease (HD). Clinical symptoms in JHD are broad and non-specific, making the initial diagnosis difficult. In this report, we describe a young Hispanic male who gradually developed cognitive decline, dystonia, and seizures. His diagnosis was delayed despite multiple visits to his pediatrician, developmental specialist, and neurologist. A history of developmental regression and unusual imaging findings prompted genetic testing, which led to the diagnosis of JHD. Though changes in the striatum on MRI are hallmarks of JHD, family and developmental history often provide the most important diagnostic clues. Careful history-taking in patients with non-specific neurological exam findings, as in patients with JHD, can prevent diagnostic delays and allow for early interventions to improve quality of life.
