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

objectiveThere is a growing number of monogenic disorders implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. Motor impairment is frequently seen in these disorders, although not clearly defined. We aimed to characterize the motor phenotype of genetic NDDs.

methodsWe analyzed data from Simons Searchlight, collecting information on patients with genetic NDDs. Data analyzed included Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales Second Edition (Vineland-II) motor standard scores, motor milestones and tone abnormalities.

resultsIn total, 959 patients with 57 genetic disorders were included. Disorders associated with Vineland-II motor standard score <56 included GRIN2B-related disorder (mean standard score = 53.5), HNRNPH2-related disorder (mean standard score = 55.8) and SCN2A-related disorder (mean standard score = 49.9). The only genetic condition with a mean age of sitting unsupported ≥18 months was GRIN1-related disorder (mean age = 26.3 months). Genetic conditions with a mean age of walking independently ≥36 months included CTNNB1-related disorder (mean age = 37.4 months) and HNRNPH2-related disorder (mean age = 41.9 months). Tone abnormalities included hypotonia in 83% (577/696), hypertonia in 16% (112/696), a diagnosis of cerebral palsy (CP) in 10% (73/696) and a diagnosis specifically of spastic CP in 3% (23/696).

interpretationPatients with genetic NDDs have a spectrum of motor impairment, which warrant further characterization.
