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

Diseases of the human nervous system are an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. These disorders arise out of multiple aetiologies of which rare genetic mutations in genes vital to nervous system development and function are an important cause. The diagnosis of such rare disorders is challenging due to the close overlap of clinical presentations with other diseases that are not of genetic origin. Further, understanding the mechanisms by which mutations lead to altered brain structure and function is also challenging, given that the brain is not readily accessible for tissue biopsy. However, recent developments in modern technologies have opened up new opportunities for the analysis of rare genetic disorders of the brain. In this review, we discuss these developments and strategies by which they can be applied effectively for better understanding of rare diseases of the brain. This will lead to the development of new clinical strategies to manage brain disorders.
