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

Pathogenic variants in the HIBCH gene cause HIBCH deficiency, leading to mitochondrial disorders associated with valine metabolism. Patients typically present with symptoms such as developmental regression/delay, encephalopathy, hypotonia and dystonia. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows bilateral lesions in the basal ganglia with/without brainstem involvement. Here, we report a case of a Japanese patient with Leigh-like syndrome caused by novel HIBCH variants. Long-term follow-up MRI revealed progressive cerebellar atrophy, which expands the phenotypic spectrum of HIBCH deficiency.
