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

backgroundOrofacial cleft (OFC) is one of the most common congenital malformations with a global incidence of approximately 1/700 live births. Clinically, OFCs can be syndromic or non-syndromic. CASE PRESENTATION: A 5 years old boy admitted for genetic evaluation because of psychomotor delay, failure to thrive, dysmorphic features and cleft palate. Conventional cytogenetic showed a notably short p arm of one chromosome 20. FISH analysis identified the derivative chromosome 20 as a de novo 20p12.3 deletion.

conclusionWe present in this paper a Moroccan patient with syndromic cleft palate caused by a de novo 20p12.3 deletion, and we highlight the interest of FISH in the diagnosis confirmation of chromosomal rearrangement. In practice, 20p12.3 deletion should be considered as an etiological diagnosis in the case of syndromic cleft palate.
