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

Introduction: Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a sporadic, progressive, congenital condition that occurs due to hamartomatous malformation and is usually referred to as a "port wine stain." It is characterized by trisymptomatic forms that include facial port wine stain, glaucoma, and leptomeningeal calcifications. Case description: A 42-year-old female patient presented with a chief complaint of missing teeth in the mandibular anterior region that had recently exfoliated following mobility. A unilateral port wine stain noted on the left side of her face appeared to follow the left maxillary division of the trigeminal nerve with minimal intraoral signs. The patient claimed it had been present since birth. Discussion: The origin, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, potential therapies, and prognosis of SWS are discussed. Conclusion: A multidisciplinary approach to individuals with SWS is required for the successful treatment of these patients.
