Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and the G374sp Mutation.
Article in Molecular syndromology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare, X-linked disease caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase, which catalyses a step in the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans resulting in accumulation of heparan and dermatan sulfate in many organs and tissues. This accumulation favors the appearance of neurologic involvement, severe airway obstruction, skeletal deformities, and cardiomyopathy, especially mitral and aortic valve regurgitation. In severe cases, obstructive airway disease and cardiac failure due to valvular dysfunction are the most common causes of death within the second decade of life. However, in mild cases, intelligence remains normal, stature is almost normal and death usually occurs due to cardiac failure in the fourth decade of life. We report the presentation, diagnosis, management, and outcome of 2 siblings with MPS II and the G374sp mutation at the nucleotide c.1246 of the gene encoding for the iduronate-2-sulfatase.
