Rethinking Newborn Screening: A Case of GALM Deficiency.
Article in International journal of neonatal screening, 2025. 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
Galactosemia is a group of hereditary disorders of galactose metabolism. A new type of galactosemia was discovered, caused by a deficiency in galactose mutarotase (GALM), which catalyzes the epimerization between beta- and alpha-D-galactose. All GALM-deficient patients reported in the literature (n = 44) had abnormal newborn screening (NBS) results or did not receive NBS (n = 2). We present the first patient with GALM deficiency who had negative NBS in the Netherlands and was identified at age 1.5 years during broad metabolic screening because of her global developmental delay, nystagmus, and a history of jaundice. Biochemical evaluation showed a significantly increased excretion of galactose (13,167 mmol/mol creatinine, upper limit of normal (ULN) 326) and galactitol (427 mmol/mol creatinine, ULN 71). Whole exome sequencing showed homozygous variants in
