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

abstractAnti-IgLON5 disease is an evolving entity that lies at the confluence of autoimmunity and neurodegeneration. Reports from India remain sparse. In this series, we describe seven Indian patients with anti-IgLON5-related disease. Patients presented across the fifth to eighth decades with a mean duration of illness of 16 months. All had movement disorders, which included gait ataxia, parkinsonism, and chorea. Six patients had sleep disturbances. Five had a frontal dysexecutive dementia phenotype. Two had epilepsy. Bulbar involvement was present in four, and one had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-like features. Magnetic resonance imaging was abnormal in two cases. Positron emission tomography of the brain also contributed to diagnosis. Combination immunotherapies were used in most of the patients, with three showing a sustained response and two deaths reported due to sepsis-related complications. It is important to recognize the increasing spectrum of IgLON5-related disease to enable timely initiation of immunotherapy before marked degeneration occurs.
