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

Landau-Kleffner syndrome is a developmental epileptic encephalopathy that manifests mainly in pediatric patients, characterized by verbal auditory agnosia and focal, bilateral, and focal and diffuse epileptic activity, visualized through electroencephalographic recordings performed during sleep. It is a rare syndrome with a variable, multifactorial presentation and unknown etiology, although it has a genetic component in some cases. It is often associated with variants of the glutamate ionotropic receptor N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) type subunit 2A (GRIN2A) gene, which encodes an NMDA receptor subunit of the same name that is involved in various neurophysiological processes. Modifications to this receptor could be associated with the clinical manifestations observed in patients. This review proposes a pathophysiological mechanism related to one of the clinical presentations of this disease, using information published in recent years, and contributes to the understanding of its pathology and the improvement of its management. This syndrome is a rare and complex disease; both its diagnosis and treatment are challenging, limiting patients' therapeutic options and compromising their quality of life.
