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

A common mutation within the CYP17 gene that causes 17 alpha-hydroxylase deficiency, a form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, has been found by direct sequencing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) fragments of genomic DNA from six families residing in the Friesland region of the Netherlands. The mutation is a 4-base duplication within exon 8 of the CYP17 gene, which alters the reading frame encoding the C-terminal 26 amino acids of cytochrome P45017 alpha. This mutation has previously been found in two Canadian patients who are members of ostensibly unrelated Mennonite families. The Mennonite Churches derive their name from Menno Simons, an early leader of the sect in Friesland. Presumably this 4-base duplication appeared within the Friesian population prior to emigration of the Mennonites from the Netherlands.
