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

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS), a rare disorder typically presenting in the newborn period, results in over 90% of cases from PHOX2B polyalanine repeat mutations. It is characterized by alveolar hypoventilation, symptoms of autonomic nervous system dysregulation, and in a subset of cases Hirschsprung's disease and, later, tumors of neural crest origin. We describe a preterm infant with severe phenotype of CCHS and hyperinsulinism. A novel de novo heterozygote missence mutation (Gly68Cys) in the PHOX2B gene could be identified. Based on the observation of three patients presenting with the combination of congenital hyperinsulinism and CCHS, hyperinsulinism might represent an additional clinical feature of CCHS.
