Clinical, radiological and genetic analysis of a male infant with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Surfactant protein B (SP-B) deficiency has become increasingly recognized as a cause of severe prolonged respiratory distress. However, little has been reported with regard to the genetic variability of SP-B in Chinese infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). One case of a Chinese male infant with neonatal RDS was analyzed for clinical manifestation and genetic variability of SP-B. The clinical manifestations, including grunting, intercostal retractions, nasal flaring, cyanosis and tachypnea were discovered in the physical examination. The initial chest X-ray indicated hyper-inflation, diffuse opacification and air bronchogram of the lungs. Pathological tests of lung tissue revealed RDS and SP-B deficiency. Atelectasis and pneumonedema were observed in the lobes of the lung. Molecular analysis of genomic DNA revealed a mutation of 121del2 in intron 4 of the SP-B gene. In conclusion, the variant in intron 4 of the SP-B gene was associated with neonatal RDS in a Chinese male infant.
