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

Congenital atrichia (CA) is a rare form of irreversible alopecia with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, usually associated with a mutation in the human hairless (HR) gene located at chromosome 8. Papular lesions may develop as an additional phenotypic feature. Herein we describe a case of CA supported by trichoscopy, histology and genetic analysis. The patient's single brother had also universal alopecia. To our knowledge this is the second report of a specific pathogenic mutation (c.2818C>T) of the HR, which until now had only been identified in a family with CA and papular lesions, emphasizing the difficulty to establish a strict correlation between HR genotyping and the phenotype.
