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

The first report of X-linked mental retardation correlated with the presence of marker chromosome came in 1940. It was in 1990 that the molecular basis of fragile X syndrome was deciphered. This elucidation marked the discovery of a novel process of mutation designated as dynamic mutations, resulting in the expansion of a triplet repeat sequence within the human genome. Subsequently several human genetic disorders involving triplet repeat expansion have been discovered. Almost all the disorders are known to affect the nervous system and/or the brain. This review presents an overview of fragile sites in the genome and the molecular genetics of fragile X syndrome.
