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

In 5% to 10% of cases, neurofibromatosis type 1 is caused by microdeletions scattered across the entire NF1 gene and various neighboring genes. The phenotype appears to be more severe in patients with NF1 microdeletions than in patients with NF1 single point mutations. We have developed a new method for detecting and characterizing NF1 microdeletions based on a custom high-resolution oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridization by using the custom 8x15K Agilent array format. The array comprised a total of 14,207 oligonucleotide probes spanning the whole of chromosome 17, including 12,314 probes spanning an approximately 8 Mb interval surrounding the NF1 locus. We validated this approach by testing NF1 microdeleted DNA samples previously characterized by means of microsatellites and real-time PCR methods. Our array comparative genomic hybridization provided enough information for subsequent long-range PCR and nucleotide sequencing of the microdeletion endpoints. Unlike previously described methods, our array comparative genomic hybridization was able to unambiguously differentiate between the three types of microdeletions (type I, type II, and atypical) and to characterize atypical microdeletions. Further comparative studies of patients with well-characterized genotypes and phenotypes and different microdeletions sizes and breakpoints will help determine whether haploinsufficiency of deleted genes and/or genes rearrangements influence clinical outcomes.
