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

backgroundSpinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are a group of rare hereditary neurodegenerative disorders. Rare cases of two SCA mutations in the same individual have been reported in the literature, however, family descriptions are lacking.

aimsTo characterize a family with combined SCA2 and SCA10 mutations. MATERIALS &

methodsAnalysis of the clinical features and genetic findings of a Bolivian family expressing both SCA2 and SCA10 mutations.

resultsThe index case and his mother had both SCA2 and SCA10 mutations with a combined clinical phenotype of both disorders, including slow saccades (SCA2) and seizures (SCA10). The uncle of the index case had only an SCA10 mutation. DISCUSSION: Although the presence of two SCA mutations in the same individuals may be coincidental, the low probability of having both mutations suggests that these mutations might be particularly prevalent in Bolivian population.

conclusionThis is the first description of a family with two SCA mutations with affected subjects having a combined SCA2 and SCA10 phenotype.
