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

Wolcott-Rallison syndrome (WRS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early-onset diabetes, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, tendency to skeletal fractures secondary to osteopenia, and growth retardation. Mutations in the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α kinase (EIF2AK3) gene are responsible for this disorder. Here, we describe a boy with neonatal diabetes, diagnosed at 2 months of age, who developed severe growth retardation and a skeletal fracture during the follow-up period. The patient's skeletal X-ray revealed findings of skeletal dysplasia. A clinical diagnosis of WRS was confirmed by the identification of a novel homozygous nonsense mutation (R491X) in exon 9 of the EIF2AK3 gene. The aim of this report is to raise the awareness for Wolcott-Rallison syndrome in cases presenting with isolated neonatal diabetes. This patient demonstrates that the other findings of this syndrome might be obscured by a diagnosis of isolated neonatal diabetes.
