Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II (CPT2) Deficiency in a Patient With Recurrent Rhabdomyolysis: A Case Report.
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
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT2) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that prevents the body from using long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) for energy. We report a case of a 40-year-old male with a recent episode of rhabdomyolysis triggered by an illness. His liver function tests (LFTs) and creatine kinase (CK) levels were markedly elevated. His rhabdomyolysis improved in the hospital with supportive treatment. At follow-up appointments, it was found that he had labs consistent with CPT2 deficiency. Genetic testing confirmed a homozygous mutation in the CPT2 gene. This report highlights the importance of considering CPT2 deficiency as a cause of recurrent rhabdomyolysis, especially when triggered by non-traumatic causes.
