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

Hypomyelination of early myelinating structures (HEMS) has recently been defined as a new genetic disorder accompanied by clinical and MR imaging characteristics. However, no studies have focused on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) findings of HEMS. We would like to propose a "sheep sign," which is formed by DWI hyperintensity in the medial medullary lamina along with alternating high-low-high (HLH) intensity stripes in the posterior limb of the internal capsule. We believe the presence of the "sheep sign" on DWI in combination with alternating HLH intensity stripes may be a valuable tool for diagnosing HEMS.
