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 novel TECTA mutation, p.R1890C, was found in a Dutch family with nonsyndromic autosomal dominant sensorineural hearing impairment. In early life, presumably congenital, hearing impairment occurred in the midfrequency range, amounting to about 40 dB at 1 kHz. Speech recognition was good with all phoneme recognition scores exceeding 90%. An intact horizontal vestibuloocular reflex was found in four tested patients. The missense mutation is located in the zona pellucida (ZP) domain of alpha-tectorin. Mutations affecting the ZP domain of alpha-tectorin are significantly associated with midfrequency hearing impairment. Substitutions affecting other amino acid residues than cysteines show a significant association with hearing impairment without progression. Indeed, in the present family progression seemed to be absent. In addition, the presently identified mutation affecting the ZP domain resulted in a substantially lesser degree of hearing impairment than was previously reported for DFNA8/12 traits with mutations affecting the ZP domain of alpha-tectorin.
