Novel 4-bp Intronic Deletion (c.1560+5_1560+8del) [corrected] in LEMD3 in a Korean Patient With Osteopoikilosis.
Article in Annals of laboratory medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Osteopoikilosis is an autosomal dominant bone disorder characterized by symmetric multiple osteosclerotic lesions throughout the axial and appendicular skeleton. Pathogenic variants in the LEMD3 have been identified as the cause of osteopoikilosis. LEMD3 encodes an inner nuclear membrane protein that interacts with bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β pathways. We report the case of a 19-year-old man presenting with lower back pain and sciatica. His radiograph revealed bilateral and symmetrical multiple osteosclerotic bone lesions in both scapular areas. Sanger sequencing of LEMD3 revealed a four-base-pair deletion in intron 2 (c.1560+5_1560+8del), [corrected] which was inherited from his father. We found that this four-base-pair deletion in intron 2 causes aberrant splicing and consequent deletion of exon 2. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of genetically confirmed osteopoikilosis in Korea.
