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

Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterised by progressive neurological degeneration, oculocutaneous telangiectasia, immunodeficiency and a high incidence of lymphoid tumours. A prerequisite to gaining a complete understanding of the basic defect that results in these features is the localization of the gene(s) involved. We report here a linkage analysis using seven polymorphic markers, which map to 11q22-23, on a sample of 35 consecutively obtained families from the British Isles showing this disorder. In a pairwise analysis, the strongest support for linkage was a lod score of 4.01 at zero recombination from Thy-1. This result supports a previous report showing linkage of the A-T gene to 11q22-23. We have also obtained evidence in a multipoint analysis for a more centromeric A-T-linked locus in the region between YNB 3.12/CJ52.208 and 2-7-1D6. This observation is also supported by inspection of the haplotypes of selected recombinants.
