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

aimsThis study aims to identify the prevalence and risk factors of dysphagia in a Chinese cohort of Angelman syndrome (AS).

methodsA structured questionnaire was used to assess the status of patients in a Chinese cohort of AS. Swallowing function was evaluated using the Pediatric Eating Assessment Tool-10, with gastrointestinal symptoms quantified via the Six-item Gastrointestinal Severity Index (6-GSI). To identify potential risk factors, univariable and multivariate logistic regression was performed.

resultsAmong 490 patients with AS (median 6 years, interquartile range 4 years), the molecular subtypes of 75.7% of cases were deletions of 15q11-q13. The prevalence of dysphagia reached 56.1%. Patients with dysphagia exhibited lower BMI values compared to nondysphagia cases (15.31 ± 2.87 vs. 15.92 ± 2.91 kg/m

conclusionsOver half of Chinese patients with AS experience dysphagia, with UPD moderating risk and comorbidities amplifying susceptibility.
