Early Neonatal Epilepsy Caused by Homozygous Mutation in the SLC13A5 Gene: A Case Report From India.
Article in Cureus, 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
Early neonatal seizures have myriad causes and variable prognoses. While acute symptomatic seizures are the most common events, a significant number of cases have a genetic background for such seizures, and a timely diagnosis can help in appropriate management and prognostication. We present a case of a neonate referred to our center with multi-focal clonic seizure starting from the first day of life. Routine metabolic, radiological, and electrographic studies failed to unravel the cause, necessitating whole exome sequencing (WES), which revealed a homozygous deletion of the SLC13A5 gene on chromosome 17. The patient's parents' Sanger sequencing confirmed heterozygous mutation at the same loci, consistent with an autosomal recessive inheritance. This is perhaps among the few case reports of neonatal epilepsy associated with such mutation reported from India; however, the literature on this topic is growing worldwide.
