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

Niemann-Pick disease is an autosomal recessive lysosomal lipid storage disorder disease caused by mutations in either Niemann-Pick disease type C1 (NPC1) or the NPC2 gene. It has a wide range of symptoms that vary in severity, classified into three main types: A, B, and C1 and C2, based on genetics and the symptoms and signs. The usual presentation in the neonatal period is cholestatic jaundice, subsequently, it will develop hepatosplenomegaly in infancy, failure to thrive, ataxia, hypotonia, seizure, difficulty in speech, swallowing, and recurrent respiratory tract infection. In this case report, we describe the case of a five-month-old infant presenting with jaundice, developmental delay, and hepatosplenomegaly, and the diagnosis was confirmed by whole exome sequencing. The current treatment regimen includes frequent monitoring of liver function with symptomatic management like speech therapy, and nutritional therapy.
