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

backgroundChudley McCullough syndrome is characterized by partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, interhemispheric cyst, cerebral and cerebellar cortical dysplasias, and hydrocephalus. This syndromic form of sensorineural hearing loss is rare. Our literature search has located 13 siblings in 6 families with this syndrome. We report a case of Chudley McCullough syndrome and discuss the relevant literature. It is amply clear from the review of literature that treatment of ventricular dilatation or drainage of arachnoid cysts in these cases will not improve the sensorineural hearing loss. CASE ILLUSTRATION: A 14-month-old female child presented with bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss. Neuroimaging revealed partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, colpocephaly, and an interhemispheric arachnoid cyst. These associations suggested a diagnosis of Chudley McCullough syndrome.
