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

During our studies of Romany (Gypsy) families with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom, we have identified a large kindred with two independently segregating autosomal recessive neuropathies. The novel disorder, named "hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Russe" (HMSNR), presented as a severe disabling form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with prominent sensory loss, moderately reduced motor nerve conduction velocity, and a high threshold for electrical nerve stimulation. A genome scan in two branches of the large kindred detected linkage to the 10q22-q23 region containing the early growth response 2 gene (EGR2), a transcription factor with a key role in peripheral nerve myelination. The results of sequence analysis and the detection of an intragenic polymorphism allowed us to exclude EGR2 as the HMSNR gene. Further analysis done using linkage and recombination mapping refined the position of the HMSNR gene to a small interval on 10q23.2, flanked by markers D10S581 and D10S1742, telomeric to EGR2. In this interval, a conserved seven-marker haplotype is shared by all disease chromosomes, suggesting a single founder mutation. The homozygosity region is contained in bacterial-artificial-chromosome contig 1570 of the Sanger Centre physical map and has an estimated physical size of approximately 500 kb.
