Autobiographical memory impairment in genetic generalized epilepsies: neurocognitive and pathophysiological determinants.

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
The neuropsychological breakdowns of autobiographical memory (AM) in adults suffering from genetic generalized epilepsy (GGE) are far from being understood and largely neglected.We aimed at identifying AM impairments in GGE by analyzing neurocognitive deficits in illness-related variables possibly affecting AM.Patients with GGE were compared to healthy controls (HCs), through semistructured interviews on AM, as well as neuropsychological measures to identify potential determinants of AM impairment.A single GGE group was formed by including patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), juvenile absence epilepsy (JAE), and epilepsy with generalized tonic-clonic seizures alone (EGTCA). Both GGE patients and HCs were tested for differential impairments in autobiographical episodic memory (AEM) and/or autobiographical semantic memory (ASEM), as well as other episodic- and/or semantic-memory and executive-function domains.The GGE patients exhibited overall impairment in autobiographical episodic and semantic information retrieval compared to HCs, both regarding childhood and the recent past. Furthermore, GGE patients demonstrated significantly poorer performance in immediate and delayed episodic recall, visuospatial working memory, visuoperceptual organization, face recognition memory, and verbal-executive functions compared to HCs. A distinct visuoperceptual involvement in retrieving childhood autobiographical episodic and semantic information has emerged, suggesting a potential connection between the latter AM systems and visual cognition.
