Assessing Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP), Mortality, and Suicide in Pediatric Epilepsy from the lens of Healthcare Disparities: Data From a Scoping Review.
Article in Journal of child neurology, 2026. 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
RationaleA recent scoping review of disparities in pediatric epilepsy revealed that mortality-related outcomes, including sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) and suicide, are rarely studied. We addressed this gap by systematically analyzing literature on social determinants of health (SDOH) and epilepsy-related mortality/SUDEP and suicide.MethodsThe Pediatric Epilepsy Research Consortium Health Equity Special Interest Group updated a recent scoping review, incorporating peer-reviewed studies that assessed SUDEP, suicide, or mortality in populations affected by SDOH. Data were categorized by SDOH factors and corresponding disparities to identify patterns across studies.ResultsEighteen studies were reviewed: mortality without referencing SUDEP (n = 8), SUDEP (n = 7), and suicide (n = 3). Gender was the most common SDOH; others included socioeconomic status, geography, race/ethnicity, and education.ConclusionLiterature addressing disparities in pediatric epilepsy-related mortality is limited. Standardized SDOH data collection may improve comparability and inform equity-focused interventions.
