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

Objective: To investigate the computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging manifestations of Joubert syndrome (JS). Method: In this retrospective analysis, we investigated the clinical and imaging characteristics of JS in a cohort of twelve pediatric patients with confirmed diagnoses. Specifically, we analyzed both computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) manifestations in this population. CTs were performed on four patients and MRIs were performed on twelve, respectively. Results: JS is characterized by specific CT and MRI findings, including midline fissure, batwing, or triangular formations of the fourth ventricle between the bilateral cerebellar hemispheres, and molar sign at the midbrain level. All twelve cases in this cohort exhibited these traits, along with other cerebral abnormalities, such as dysplasia of the corpus callosum in two cases, gray matter heterotopia in one case, and occipital meningocele in one case. Conclusion: JS has distinctive CT and MRI characteristics that can be clinically identified.
