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

backgroundPediatric neurological disorders include neurodegenerative diseases causing cognitive impairment and vision loss. They are one of the important causes of morbidity and mortality in children with diverse etiologies. Diagnosis is difficult despite genetic work, and a final diagnosis can be achieved in only 60% of cases. CASE PRESENTATION: We explore three Indian cases of pediatric neurological diseases (with age presented at the clinic), viz. arthrogryposis (8 years), autism (18 months), and congenital bilateral cataract (3 years), by analyzing clinical exomes. In this work, we attempt to understand rare neurological disorders in an Indian pediatric cohort using exome studies.

conclusionWe used our benchmarked CONVEX pipeline for screening consensus variants, wherein EIF2B2 was found to be inherently pathogenic. We map the association of variants and genes and disease correlation to neuroleptic malignant syndrome, which matches the phenotype to the cases.
