Detection of ictal apnea refines the clinical spectrum of ATRX syndrome.
Article in Epilepsy & behavior reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Alpha-thalassemia X-linked intellectual disability syndrome (ATRX) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the ATRX gene. It is characterized by distinct dysmorphic features, alpha thalassemia, varying degrees of intellectual disability, and the presence of epilepsy in approximately 30 % of affected individuals. We present the case of a 36-year-old patient with severe intellectual disability and epilepsy due to a hemizygous pathogenic variant, c.736c > T, p. (Arg246Cys), in the ATRX gene. During inpatient treatment, numerous respiratory pauses were detected. Repeated video EEG recordings revealed seizure patterns with a left frontocentral origin and an occasional spread to the bifrontal region and episodes of apnea without an EEG correlate. This case report adds to the current literature, as it shows a co-occurrence of ictal and non-ictal apnea in ATRX syndrome, expanding our understanding of respiratory disturbances in this rare genetic disorder.
