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

Diaphanospondylodysostosis (DSD) is a rare, recessively inherited, perinatal lethal skeletal disorder. The low frequency and perinatal lethality of DSD makes assembling a large set of families for traditional linkage-based genetic approaches challenging. By searching for evidence of unknown ancestral consanguinity, we identified two autozygous intervals, comprising 34 Mbps, unique to a single case of DSD. Empirically testing for ancestral consanguinity was effective in localizing the causative variant, thereby reducing the genomic space within which the mutation resides. High-throughput sequence analysis of exons captured from these intervals demonstrated that the affected individual was homozygous for a null mutation in BMPER, which encodes the bone morphogenetic protein-binding endothelial cell precursor-derived regulator. Mutations in BMPER were subsequently found in three additional DSD cases, confirming that defects in BMPER produce DSD. Phenotypic similarities between DSD and Bmper null mice indicate that BMPER-mediated signaling plays an essential role in vertebral segmentation early in human development.
