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

Prosopagnosia, a neurological condition affecting perception and differentiation of faces, is categorized as either acquired or developmental (present since birth). Acquired cases of prosopagnosia are usually caused by right hemisphere or bilateral damage. We present a right-handed 17-year-old male with a history of focal epilepsy and a new diagnosis of prosopagnosia due to a perinatal stroke affecting the left lingual gyrus, a structure in close proximity to the fusiform face area. In addition to showing that early acquired cases of prosopagnosia may go unrecognized, this case shows that left hemisphere lesions may also affect facial recognition. It is important to screen for prosopagnosia via comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation in patients with lesions proximal to the fusiform face area.
