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

Genetic factors contribute substantially to the development of reading disability (RD). Family linkage studies have implicated many chromosomal regions containing RD susceptibility genes, of which putative loci at 1p34-p36 (DYX8), 2p (DYX3), 6p21.3 (DYX2), and 15q21 (DYX1) have been frequently replicated, whereas those at 3p12-q12 (DYX5), 6q13-q16 (DYX4), 11p15 (DYX7), 18p11 (DYX6), and Xq27 (DYX9) have less evidence. Association studies of positional candidate genes have implicated DCDC2 and KIAA0319 in DYX2, as well as C2ORF3 and MRPL19 (DYX3), whereas DYX1C1/EKN1 (DYX1) and ROBO1 (DYX5) were found to be disrupted by rare translocation breakpoints in reading-disabled individuals. Four of the candidate genes (DYX1C1, KIAA0319, DCDC2, and ROBO1) appear to function in neuronal migration and guidance, suggesting the importance of early neurodevelopmental processes in RD. Future studies to help us understand the function of these and other RD candidate genes promise to yield enormous insight into the neurobiologic mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of this disorder.
