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

We present a family with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) and elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels. In addition to neurological examinations, ultrasound of extra- and intracranial arteries, laboratory tests, and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a whole genome screening with mutation analyses was performed. Rather untypical for CADASIL, stenoses of large intracranial arteries were detected in the index patient. All affected subjects lacked a history of migraine, mood disturbances, and cognitive decline despite extensive white matter lesions in two individuals. Furthermore, evidence of early cerebral microangiopathy was demonstrated in three children (age 9, 11 and 13). We were able to explain the mechanism of elevated Lp(a) on the basis of the kringle IV type 2 repetition size. A mutation S118C located in exon 4 of Notch3 was responsible for CADASIL. Elevated Lp(a) might have contributed to the cerebrovascular phenotype in this family.
