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

objectiveTo study MAMLD1 gene polymorphisms, serum LH and testosterone levels amongst Indian children with isolated hypospadias (IH) and controls. MATERIALS AND

methodsScreening of the MAMLD1 gene was performed by PCR sequencing method in 100 Indian children aged 0-12 years presenting with IH and 100 controls. LH and testosterone hormone levels were also assessed (categorized in four age-wise groups).

resultsIH subjects had significantly higher incidence of MAMLD1 polymorphism as compared to controls (33 vs 15 %, p = 0.01). Of various genomic variants identified in this study, the noteworthy novel ones were missense mutation P299A and single nucleotide polymorphism c.2960C>T in 3' UTR of Exon 7. While p 299A was found to cause protein structural instability consequent to amino acid change, eighty percent subjects with c.2960C>T in 3' UTR of Exon 7 (corresponding to newly discovered currently non-validated exon 11) were found to have lower testosterone levels when compared with their age group mean. IH showed statistically higher incidence of c.2960C>T in comparison to controls (22 vs 10 %, p value 0.046) and about 2.5-folds higher risk of this anomaly.

conclusionOccurrence of MAMDL1 gene polymorphisms, specially of c.2960C>T in 3' UTR of its exon 7 is associated with a higher risk of IH in Indian children, probably by lowering androgenic levels.
