Arginase deficiency with parotid gland swelling and hyperamylasemia: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2023. 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
Arginase deficiency is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by episodic hyperammonemia crises. Our patient had been diagnosed with cerebral palsy (spastic paraplegia) in childhood and received rehabilitation. She had suffered parotid swelling since the age of 5 years, prior to liver dysfunction becoming apparent, and then developed hyperamylasemia at 8 years of age. At age 25 years, she presented with hyperammonemia and elevations of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase. At age 27 years, she was diagnosed with arginase deficiency due to hyperargininemia and absent arginase activity in erythrocytes. Liver cirrhosis was also present. She was hospitalized several times for management of episodic hyperammonemia due to recurrent viral infections, an unbalanced diet, and poor compliance with medications.
