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

purposeTo identify mutations within the TGFBI gene in a Chinese family with lattice corneal dystrophy type I (LCD I).

methodsGenomic DNA of three affected, four unaffected family members and 50 normal individuals was extracted from peripheral leukocytes. All exons of TGFBI were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods and direct sequencing was carried out for mutation analysis.

resultsA missense mutation (1565T-->A) in exon12 of TGFBI led to an amino acid substitution I522N in the TGFB-induced protein in all affected family members, but the mutation was not detected in normal subjects of the family and control individuals.

conclusionsWe conclude that the novel mutation I522N causes lattice corneal dystrophy type I in the studied family. This is the first report of the I522N mutation within TGFBI in LCD I worldwide.
