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

Recently, a subset of fucosidosis patients was identified in which the single EcoRI site in the open reading frame of the human cDNA encoding alpha-L-fucosidase was obliterated. We have employed the polymerase chain reaction technique to amplify alpha-L-fucosidase DNA from the five patients known to carry the EcoRI abnormality as well as four patients and two additional fucosidosis patients who do not carry the EcoRI abnormality. Sequence analysis of the amplified DNA has determined that the EcoRI site was destroyed by a C-T transition in the last position of the EcoRI site. This single base change results in the generation of a stop codon 120 base pairs upstream of the normal stop codon. In addition, we have determined that EcoRI cleavage of amplified DNA may be a useful diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of heterozygotes and in prenatal diagnosis of fetuses at risk for this disease.
