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

Using genetic linkage we have localized the gene coding for galactocerebrosidase (GALC) to human chromosome 14. Patients with Krabbe disease and their family members were assayed for GALC activity in leukocytes or fibroblasts and were classified as affected, carrier, noncarrier, or unknown. Polymorphic DNA markers from chromosome 14 demonstrated a multipoint LOD score of 3.40 with GALC located 13 cM centromere distal to CRI-C70 (D14S24). This finding is consistent with the location of the mouse twitcher mutation (a model of human GALC deficiency) on chromosome 12, which has substantial homology to human chromosome 14. Our data do not support a previous report's localization of GALC to chromosome 17.
