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

Our study aimed to evaluate cognitive function in individuals with genetic skin disorders involving neuroectoderm (n = 8) compared to individuals with only ectoderm or mesoderm (n = 16) involvement. We hypothesized that neuroectodermal involvement would result in poorer neurocognitive performance. A prospective, cross-sectional pilot study of 24 participants evaluated cognition, adaptive skills, behavior, and quality of life (QoL) using neurodevelopmental tests. Participants' characteristics and outcomes of interest were summarized by standard descriptive statistics using means, standard deviation, median, and 95% confidence intervals. We found no differences between mean cognitive composite standard score, adaptive composite standard score, QoL raw score, or internalizing and externalizing behavior T-scores between the neuroectodermal group (82.3, 90.3, 70.3, and 50.0, respectively; average age = 7 years) and the ectodermal/mesodermal group (87.8, 96.4, 80.4, and 54.3, respectively; average age = 5.9 years). No differences were seen in neurodevelopmental functioning between both groups. Our pilot study presents a framework for utilizing neurocognitive testing in patients with genodermatoses. A limitation of our work is the high level of heterogeneity due to varying diagnoses seen in each group requiring larger sample sizes for determination of clinical significance. Future work is needed to include homogenous diagnoses and to evaluate the most efficacious interventions to maximize neurodevelopmental outcomes in individuals with genodermatoses.
