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

Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) is characterized by recurrent attacks of abnormal involuntary movements that are triggered by sudden movement, intention to move, or acceleration. A 10-year-old boy presented with paroxysmal, involuntary twisting movements of the left upper and lower limbs, precipitated by sudden body movements, lasting for 10-15 seconds and subsiding spontaneously. On examination, choreiform movements were observed, which were precipitated by sudden movements during some activities. The patient responded to carbamazepine with complete subsidence of the movements. The diagnosis of PKD was further confirmed by genetic testing. A high suspicion index helps in the prompt and early diagnosis of this rare entity.
