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

Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare form of diabetes that presents within the first six months of life. Nearly 70% of these cases have loss of methylation at the differentially methylated region on chromosome 6q24. To describe the findings in a Turkish male patient with NDM caused by a loss of methylation at chromosome 6q24 and three novel homozygous mutations in the ZFP57 gene, methylation-specific PCR was carried out at 6q24 and mutation analysis of ZFP57 gene was maintained by direct sequencing. Sequencing of ZFP57 gene revealed the hypomethylation of chromosome 6q24 and three novel mutations (chr6:29.641.413 A>T, 29.641.073 C>T, and 29.640.855 G>C), respectively. The latter mutation seems to display the patient's condition due to a highly conservative amino acid substitution in the protein. We suggest the ZFP57 gene as a causative factor for NDM and it should be considered in genetic testing. Further studies including functional analysis of the detected mutations will provide precise information regarding the effect of the mutations.
