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 classic clinical features in the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome are congenital heart defects, hypocalcemia, immunodeficiency, learning, speech, and behavioral difficulties. The phenotype is highly variable and continues to expand. We present two cases of absent uterus and unilateral renal agenesis in females with the 22q11.2 deletion. Clinicians caring for these adolescents should be aware of the possibility of renal anomalies and Mullerian agenesis. The diagnosis of 22q11.2 deletion may be considered in a female with Mullerian agenesis, particularly, in association with a history of learning difficulties and speech delay.
