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

We provide a comprehensive overview of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prominent manifestation. Our unique database search has identified 256 IMDs associated with various types of epilepsies, which we classified according to the classic pathophysiology-based classification of IMDs, and according to selected seizure-related factors (neonatal seizures, infantile spasms, myoclonic seizures, and characteristic EEG patterns) and treatability for the underlying metabolic defect. Our findings indicate that inherited metabolic epilepsies are more likely to present in the neonatal period, with infantile spasms or myoclonic seizures. Additionally, the ∼20% of treatable inherited metabolic epilepsies found by our search were mainly associated with the IMD groups of "cofactor and mineral metabolism" and "Intermediary nutrient metabolism." The information provided by this study, including a comprehensive list of IMDs with epilepsy stratified according to age of onset, and seizure type and characteristics, along with an overview of the key clinical features and proposed diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, may benefit any epileptologist and healthcare provider caring for individuals with metabolic conditions.
