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

Two methods, spectrophotometry and HPLC, were compared in the analyses of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase (HL) activity in three unrelated Czech patients with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaric (HMG) aciduria and their family members. The HL activities in cultured fibroblasts and/or isolated lymphocytes of probands were below the detection limits of the methods used. Both methods were also suitable for recognition of all heterozygotes in affected families. We searched for pathogenic mutations in the HL gene. Molecular analyses revealed that two patients are homozygous for known mutation H233R and R41Q, respectively, whereas the third patient is a compound heterozygote for the mutation H233R and a novel mutation Pro9fs(-1). This study expands the knowledge of the genotypic variability of the HMG aciduria.
