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

Background and Objectives: Pathogenic variants in the Methods: All children with epilepsy and either a pathogenic Results: Forty children were identified, and 24 were male (n = 24/40, 60%). The median age at seizure onset was 5 months (IQR 4, 6) (range 2-150 months). Bilateral tonic-clonic (BTC) (n = 22/40, 55%) and focal motor seizures with impaired awareness evolving to BTC seizures (n = 9/40, 23%) were most common. Thirty-six children (n = 36/40, 90%) had pathogenic Discussion: Pathogenic
