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 hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a complex group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by lower-limb spasticity and weakness. Silver syndrome (SS) is a particularly disabling dominantly inherited form of HSP, complicated by amyotrophy of the hand muscles. Having excluded the multiple known HSP loci, we undertook a genomewide screen for linkage of SS in one large multigenerational family, which revealed evidence for linkage of the SS locus, which we have designated "SPG17," to chromosome 11q12-q14. Haplotype construction and analysis of recombination events permitted the minimal interval defining SPG17 to be refined to approximately 13 cM, flanked by markers D11S1765 and D11S4136. SS in a second family was not linked to SPG17, demonstrating further genetic heterogeneity in HSP, even within this clinically distinct subtype.
