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

Renal coloboma syndrome (RCS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by PAX2 gene mutations and characterized by renal hypoplasia and optic disc coloboma. The clinical findings were retrospectively reviewed, and all coding regions of the PAX2 gene were sequenced, in six children with RCS. A c.619_620insG mutation was detected in five patients, including two siblings, and a novel p.Arg104X mutation was detected in one patient. All the patients had progressive renal dysfunction and bilateral hypoplastic kidneys without vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), but the rate of progression to end-stage renal disease showed some diversity. The ocular manifestations showed wide variability, ranging from subtle optic disc anomalies to microphthalmia. In one family with two affected siblings, maternal germline mosaicism was suggested by an intragenic microsatellite marker study. In conclusion, there are variable renal and ocular manifestations in RCS without significant phenotype-genotype correlations. VUR is not a cardinal renal manifestation of RCS. The possibility of germline mosaicism should be considered during molecular diagnosis and genetic counseling for PAX2 mutations.
