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

Although genes associated with human autism spectrum disorders have been identified, bridging the gap between genetics and the patchwork of behavioral deficits associated with the disease remains an enormous challenge. Peñagarikano et al. (2011) now show that mice lacking CNTNAP2, a gene that causes a rare form of epilepsy associated with autistic features and language impairment, display similar phenotypes to their human counterparts, raising hopes that such models may speed the identification of neuronal circuitries underlying the core features of autism.
