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

The genetic bases of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) have been comprehensively studied, which is not the case for atypical cases not classified into these diagnoses. In the present study, we aim to contribute to the molecular understanding of the development of non-AD and non-FTD dementia due to hyperammonemia caused by mutations in urea cycle genes. The analysis was performed by pooled whole-exome sequencing (WES) of 90 patients and by searching for rare pathogenic variants in autosomal genes for enzymes or transporters of the urea cycle pathway. The survey returned two rare pathogenic coding mutations leading to citrullinemia type I: rs148918985, p.Arg265Cys, C>T; and rs121908641, p.Gly390Arg, G>A in the argininosuccinate synthase 1 (
