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

We report an unusual case of a patient with two combined X-linked diseases, severe hemophilia A (HA) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), of which only HA was hereditary. There was no family history of muscular dystrophy. Genetic analysis revealed that HA was caused by the hereditary coagulation factor VIII (F8) intron 22 inversion (distal/type I inversion), whereas DMD was caused by a de novo deletion in the dystrophin gene. This is the first report of a patient with two severe X-linked diseases, of which only HA was hereditary. Despite the fact that the probability of acquiring two X-linked abnormalities, one hereditary and one de novo, is extremely low, the emergence of such cases indicates that genetic testing for distinct X-linked diseases could be of importance in patients with hereditary hemophilia.
