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

Members of three generations of a Norwegian family (N = 9) with a rare demyelinating disease were studied. Neuropsychological testing was performed using the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE), Wechsler Intelligence Scale-III (WAIS-III), and Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R). EEGs were recorded with grand averaging spectrograms and event-related potentials (ERPs) in rest and cued GO/NOGO task conditions. The results were within the normal range on the MMSE. Full-scale WAIS-III results were in the range of 69-113, with lower scores in verbal understanding than in perceptual organization, and low scores also in indications of working memory and processing speed difficulties. The HVLT-R showed impairment of both immediate and delayed recall. Quantitative EEG showed an increase in low alpha (around 7.5 Hz) activity in the temporofrontal areas, mostly on the left side. There was a deviation in the late (>300 ms) component in response to the NOGO stimuli. A strong correlation (r = 0.78,
