Kindler Syndrome Presenting as Colitis in an Infant.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Kindler syndrome (KS) is an autosomal recessive genodermatosis characterized by skin atrophy, blistering, photosensitivity, and mucosal inflammation. We present a unique case of KS with early and severe neonatal onset in a two-month-old female who presented with severe failure to thrive (FTT) and chronic diarrhea since birth. The infant also had multiple fluid-filled cysts on her foot since birth, which resolved and reappeared at different sites. Anemia, hyponatremia, and coloboma of the right iris were also observed. Whole exome sequencing revealed a homozygous mutation in the FERMT1 gene, confirming the diagnosis of KS. Our case demonstrates a distinct clinical phenotype involving severe colitis and FTT in addition to the typical skin manifestations of KS. This atypical presentation highlights the need for further investigations to gain insights into the impact of the kindlin-1 defect on organs beyond the skin and to explore potential therapeutic approaches for managing severe colitis in affected patients.
