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

Hyperammonemia is a rare cause of adult episodic encephalopathy. Citrin deficiency resulting in citrullinemia type 2 (CTLN2) can lead to recurrent delirium in adults. Here we report a case of adult onset episodic encephalopathy due to citrin deficiency. A 40 years old male presented with one-year history of episodic encephalopathy triggered by high protein and fat diet. He also had chronic pancreatitis and subacute intestinal obstruction which is a novel manifestation of CTLN2. Evaluation showed elevated blood liver enzymes, ammonia, and citrulline. MRI brain showed frontal hyperintensities and bulky basal ganglia which have not been reported. Diagnosis was confirmed by next-generation sequencing which showed a novel variant c. 1591G > A in exon15 of
