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

backgroundMutations of myelin protein zero (MPZ) may cause inherited neuropathy with variable expression.

objectiveTo report phenotypic variability in a large American kindred with MPZ mutation His39Pro. PATIENTS: Genetic testing was performed on 77 family members and 200 controls. Clinical and electrophysiological field study assessments were available for review in 47 family members.

resultsHis39Pro was found in all 10 individuals prospectively identified with neuropathy. 200 normal controls were without mutation. Symptoms of neuropathy began in adulthood and were slowly progressive except for one acute-onset painful sensory neuropathy. Associated features included premature hearing loss (n = 7), nocturnal restless leg symptoms (n = 8) and multiple sclerosis in one.

conclusionsMPZ mutation His39Pro may be associated with acute-onset neuropathy, early-onset hearing loss and restless legs. The relationship with multiple sclerosis in the proband remains uncertain.
