A novel duplication in the PAX6 gene in a North Indian family with aniridia.

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
Mutations in paired box gene 6 (PAX6) are the major cause of aniridia that may be associated with several other developmental anomalies of the eye, including microcornea in rare cases. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the underlying genetic cause in a two-generation North Indian family diagnosed with aniridia. All the participants enrolled in the study, including the aniridia family and 20 healthy individuals (controls), underwent a comprehensive ophthalmic examination. Mutation screening was performed for the PAX6 gene by direct sequencing of the polymerase chain reaction products. A novel PAX6 duplication in exon 5 at position c.474dupC was identified in all three affected individuals from the family but not in the unaffected family members or unrelated controls. We reported a novel duplication in the PAX6 gene capable of causing the classic aniridia phenotype. This is the first report on the duplication in a North Indian family with autosomal dominant aniridia.
