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

Pediatric seizures are an alarming presentation to the emergency department (ED) that can be caused by a multitude of etiologies. It is important to differentiate life-threatening conditions from more benign causes. A 19-month-old girl presented to the ED after a witnessed seizure. This case offers a differential diagnosis for pediatric seizures and uses history, exam, laboratory findings, and imaging to hone the differential in the ED setting. The surprising final diagnosis and case outcome are then revealed and discussed.
