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

Episodic ataxia type 2 (EA-2) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder, characterized by episodes of ataxia, vertigo, nausea, nystagmus, and fatigue, associated with acetazolamide responsiveness. The disease is caused by mutations in the P/Q-type calcium channel Ca(v)2.1 subunit gene, CACNA1A, located on chromosome 19p13.2. We analyzed a family with 13 affected individuals for linkage to this locus and reached a two-point maximum LOD score of 4.48. A novel CACNA1A mutation, IVS36-2A>G, at the 3' acceptor splice site of intron 36 was identified by sequencing. It is the first described CACNA1A acceptor splice site mutation and the most C-terminal EA-2-causing mutation reported to date.
