Sleep Abnormalities in SLC13A5 Citrate Transporter Disorder.
Article in Genes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
backgroundSLC13A5 Citrate Transporter Disorder is a rare pediatric neurodevelopmental disorder. Patients have epilepsy, developmental disability, and impaired mobility. While sleep disorders are common in children with neurodevelopmental disorders, sleep abnormalities have not been reported in SLC13A5 patients.
methodsHere, we assessed sleep disturbances in patients through caregiver reported surveys and in a transgenic mouse model of SLC13A5 deficiency. A total of 26 patients were evaluated with the Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children three times over a one-year span. Sleep and wake activities were assessed in the SLC13A5 knock-out (KO) mice using wireless telemetry devices.
resultsA high burden of clinically significant sleep disturbances were reported in the patients, with heterogeneous symptoms that remained stable across time. While sleep disturbances were common, less than 30% of patients were prescribed medications for sleep. Comparatively, in SLC13A5 KO mice using EEG recordings, significant alterations were found during light cycles, when rodents typically sleep. During the sleep period, SLC13A5 mice had increased activity, decreased paradoxical sleep, and changes in absolute power spectral density, indicating altered sleep architecture in the mouse model.
conclusionsOur results demonstrate a significant component of sleep disturbances in SLC13A5 patients and mice, highlighting a potential gap in patient care. Further investigation of sleep dysfunction and the underlying etiologies of sleep disturbances in SLC13A5 citrate transporter disorder is warranted.
