Early-onset Fahr's disease with atypical presentation of hypoglycemia and headache and fatal outcome in a 16-year-old male: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2025. 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
Fahr's disease, also known as primary familial brain calcification, is a progressive neurological disorder that follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, characterized by calcifications primarily located within the basal ganglia of the brain. This condition typically affects middle-aged individuals, who present with a combination of neurological and psychiatric symptoms; however, this case report discusses a 16-year-old male patient. The patient initially exhibited general signs of infection, including fever and jaundice, before developing specific neurological symptoms, which progressed to systemic encephalopathy characterized by altered consciousness, seizures, and hypoglycemia, necessitating his admission to the ICU. Tragically, despite receiving intensive medical treatment, the patient succumbed to the disease, highlighting the challenges associated with diagnosing and managing Fahr's disease, particularly in younger patients.
