Severe rhabdomyolysis in an infant due to fatty acid oxidation disorder: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRhabdomyolysis can develop from numerous etiologies, both acquired and hereditary. Consequences of rhabdomyolysis may be grave, therefore identifying and treating the etiology is crucial. CASE PRESENTATION: We herein report the occurrence of severe rhabdomyolysis in a previously healthy 14-month-old infant presenting to the emergency department with fever, hypotonia, and generalized discomfort. Analysis revealed extremely high creatine phosphokinase levels (> 100,000 UI/L). Metabolic myopathy was suspected, however, primary metabolic analyses were normal. Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency was diagnosed following genetic analysis, identifying a homozygous NM_000098.3, c.338C > T, p.[Ser113Leu] missense variant. Prophylactic measures were established to prevent relapse and genetic counseling provided for the sibship.
conclusionThis case highlights the difficulty of diagnosing carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency in an infant and the importance of genetic analysis to establish the diagnosis, despite a normal acylcarnitine profile.
