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

Aicardi Goutières syndrome is a type I interferonopathy that results in a spectrum of neurologic impairment. In general, neurodegenerative disorders of childhood strongly affect the quality of life and perspective of the whole caregiver network. This article aims to define the impact of Aicardi Goutières syndrome on affected individuals and families through a multimethod approach using quality of life surveys and qualitative interviews.Qualitative interviews (n = 45) and quality of life questionnaires, including the Pediatric Quality of Life-Generic Core (PedsQL-GC, n = 46) and Family Impact (PedsQL-FI, n = 45) modules, Caregiver Priorities and Child Health Index of Life with Disabilities (CPCHILD, n = 30), and Caregiver Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)-CareQoL (n = 37), were administered to caregivers of children with Aicardi Goutières syndrome. The open-ended interviews with guided questions addressed the caregivers' perception of Aicardi Goutières syndrome and determinants of quality of life. Interviews were conducted until thematic saturation and qualitative analyses generated salient themes. Per quality of life questionnaires, motor abilities and activities of daily living were more impaired compared with other domains (Comfort and Emotion, Psychosocial Health, [mixed effect analysis with Bonferroni correction,
