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

Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS) is a genetic, autosomal dominant prion brain disease that causes ataxia and slow cognitive decline. Herein, we describe a 34-year-old woman (S.C.B.) diagnosed with GSS (variant Pro102Leu). In 2018, she presented with gait instability without falls, early fatigue, and dizziness; after 3 years, urinary incontinence, initial insomnia and rapid-eye movement sleep behavior disorder, writing difficulties, and occasional dysphagia had appeared. S.C.B. was admitted to the Neurorehabilitation Unit due to the progressive worsening of her balance and walking ability [Timed Up and Go (TUG): not evaluated; Berg Balance Scale (BERG): 5/56]. At admission, neurological, neuropsychological, physiotherapeutic, occupational, and speech assessments were performed. She was completely dependent in basic (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (iADL) (ADL: 5/6; iADL: 4/8; Barthel Index: 60); furthermore, moderate cognitive decline and depressive symptoms were observed. After 4 weeks of
