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 prevalence of nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) and cleft palate only (CPO) are believed to be higher in the Japanese than in Americans, Europeans or Africans. The purpose of this study was to investigate, in a Japanese population, relationships between CL/P or CPO and seven candidate genes (TGFB3, DLX3, PAX9, CLPTM1, TBX10, PVRL1, TBX22) that showed positive associations in other populations and are expressed in the oral/lip region in developing mice. We first searched for mutations in these genes among 112 CL/P and 16 CPO patients, and found a heterozygous missense mutation (640A > G, S214G) in exon 3 of PAX9 in two sibs with CL/P and their phenotypically normal mother from a Japanese family. A population-based case-control analysis and a family-based transmission disequilibrium test (TDT), using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and two-SNP haplotypes of the genes, between the 112 CL/P cases with their parents and 192 controls indicated a significant association at one SNP site, IVS1 + 5321, in TGFB3 with a P-value of 0.0016. Population-based haplotyping revealed that the association was most significant for haplotype "A/A" consisting of IVS1 + 5321 and IVS1 - 1572; TDT also gave a P-value of 0.0252 in this haplotype.
