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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesAicardi Goutières syndrome (AGS) is type I interferonopathy characterized by severe neurologic impairment. Although many children with AGS demonstrate motor and expressive language deficits, the magnitude of receptive language impairment is uncharacterized. We sought to characterize cognitive function in AGS-affected children using assessment tools with reduced dependence on motor abilities and compare cognitive testing outcomes with overall severity and parental assessment of adaptive behavior.

methodsWe performed a cross-sectional study. Children were recruited as part of the Myelin Disorders Biorepository Project at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. We included individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of AGS. We administered the Leiter International Performance Scale, third edition (Leiter-3), and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, third edition (VABS-3), in the context of research encounters. Motor skills were categorized by AGS Severity Scale mobility levels. Descriptive statistics and Spearman's rank correlation were used to compare assessments. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests with correction with Dunn's multiple comparison test were used to compare test performance between mobility groups.

resultsCognitive and adaptive behavior performance was captured in 57 children. The mean age at encounters was 8.51 (SD 5.15) years. The median (IQR) Leiter-3 score was 51 (interquartile range [IQR] 60), with administration failure in 20 of 57 (35%) individuals. On the VABS-3, the Motor Domain (median 29, IQR 36.25) was more impacted than the Communication (median 50, IQR 52), Daily Living Skills (median 52, IQR 31), and Socialization (median 54, IQR 40) Domains ( DISCUSSION: Parental assessment of function by the VABS-3 correlated with directly assessed performance measures. Our data underscore the potential value of VABS-3 and Leiter-3 as tools to assess psychometric function in AGS. With a deeper understanding of our patients' abilities, we can better guide clinicians and families to provide appropriate support and personalized interventions to empower children with leukodystrophies to maximize their communication and educational potential.
