From Diabetes to Neuropathy: A Diagnostic Journey to Leigh Syndrome.
Article in Iranian journal of child neurology, 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
Diabetes is one of the most common chronic disorders in the world, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. Among the rare causes of diabetes, Leigh syndrome is a rare genetic mitochondrial disorder with unusual manifestations like neurological deficits in addition to typical diabetes symptoms. This report enlightens others about the unusual presentation of diabetes in a pediatric population. The studied case is a 6-year-old girl with hypothyroidism and diabetes. Post-SARS-CoV-2 infection, she developed progressive lower limb weakness. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electromyography-nerve conduction velocity (EMG-NCV) revealed brain lesions and polyneuropathy. Genetic testing using whole exome and Sanger sequencing confirmed mitochondrial gene mutations in the MT-NDI location, diagnosing her with Leigh syndrome. Pediatric diabetic patients typically present with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but other causes must be considered. Leigh syndrome can manifest with neurological symptoms, requiring clinicians to recognize its diverse presentations for proper management. This case highlights the importance of considering rare etiologies for diabetes to improve the prognosis and quality of life.
