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

Hypoglycaemia is one of the most common causes of convulsions in neonatal period. Repeated hypoglycaemic convulsions have to be addressed with utmost urgency to prevent its morbid sequelae. Repeated ketotic hypoglycaemia in the infantile period needs detailed endocrine evaluation. Our patient is a boy in the third year of his life, had presented in infancy with hypoglycaemic convulsions and hyperpigmentation of skin and mucous membrane. Investigations revealed ketotic hypoglycaemia, hypocortisolaemia with high adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and normal aldosterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and testosterone levels. This suggested isolated glucocorticoid deficiency without mineralocorticoid deficiency. He responded well to hydrocortisone therapy with resolution of symptoms and normalisation of lab parameters. Genetic study confirmed the diagnosis of familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD) with homozygous mutation in
