Evidence of a founder haplotype refines the X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMTX3) locus to a 2.5 Mb region.
Article in Neurogenetics, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMTX) disease is a common inherited degenerative disorder of the peripheral nerve. Previously, our laboratory identified a large New Zealand/United Kingdom (NZ/UK) family mapping to the CMTX3 locus (Xq26.3-27.1). We have now identified a second large, Australian X-linked CMT family that links to the CMTX3 locus. This new family has the same phenotype as our previously described CMTX3 family, with slightly milder disease in males than CMTX1 and asymptomatic carrier females. This study also includes the re-analysis of one of the original US pedigrees reporting the CMTX3 locus. The large Australian family shared the complete disease haplotype with our original NZ/UK family, while the American family shared only the distal portion of the disease haplotype. Comparison of the frequency of the CMTX3 haplotype to the normal population showed strong statistical evidence (p < 0.0001) indicating that the smaller shared haplotype is identical by descent. This suggests that the new CMTX3 family, our previously reported family, and the original American CMTX3 family have a common ancestor, and the disease in these families is caused by a founder mutation. The ancestral recombination observed in the American family refines the CMTX3 interval to a 2.5 Mb region between DXS984 and DXS8106. In this region, 11 out of the 15 annotated genes have been excluded for pathogenic mutations.
