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

This article documents both the neurological and physical outcomes of the first published set of siblings undergoing transplantation at differing ages for α-mannosidosis. The older brother, the index case, was diagnosed at the age of 3 years and underwent transplantation at 13 years for the treatment of increasing somatic problems and recurrent infections. The younger brother had undergone transplantation pre-symptomatically at 6 months of age. Their clinical, radiological and developmental outcomes are documented and compared with the previous published cases, with the case for early transplantation being weighted against other potential therapies.
