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

Polydactyly is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder. In the current report, we present a five-generation Chinese family with non-syndromic pre-axial polydactyly with thumb polydactyly (pre-axial polydactyly type I (PPD-I)) as a major clinical feature. Using whole-exome sequencing (WES), a novel nonsense mutation c.714T>A (p.Y238*) of the glioma-associated oncogene family zinc-finger 3 gene (GLI3) was identified as the pathogenic mutation for this family. Our study has, for the first time, suggested the possible contribution of GLI3 in the patheogenesis of PPD-I, and demonstrated that WES provided an applicable diagnostic tool for identifying mutations in disorders with highly genetical heterogeneity such as polydactyly.
