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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesAs a global chromatin organizer, SATB1 is increasingly implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). This study aims to delineate the clinical and molecular characteristics of a novel de novo

methodsTriggered by the onset of seizures, trio-based whole-exome sequencing (Trio-WES) was performed to identify the genetic etiology. Subsequent sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were then conducted to further characterize the patient's clinical phenotypes. Pathogenicity was assessed through structural modeling and functional characterization. Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) status, protein expression profiles, and subcellular localization were determined by reverse-transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining. The transcriptional regulatory impacts of the variant were quantified using dual-luciferase reporter system targeting known downstream regulatory elements. Clinical responses to antiepileptic intervention was also monitored.
