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

purpose of reviewThe term osteopetrosis refers to a group of rare skeletal diseases sharing the hallmark of a generalized increase in bone density owing to a defect in bone resorption. Osteopetrosis is clinically and genetically heterogeneous, and a precise molecular classification is relevant for prognosis and treatment. Here, we review recent data on the pathogenesis of this disorder. RECENT

findingsNovel mutations in known genes as well as defects in new genes have been recently reported, further expanding the spectrum of molecular defects leading to osteopetrosis. Exploitation of next-generation sequencing tools is ever spreading, facilitating differential diagnosis. Some complex phenotypes in which osteopetrosis is accompanied by additional clinical features have received a molecular classification, also involving new genes. Moreover, novel types of mutations have been recognized, which for their nature or genomic location are at high risk being neglected. Yet, the causative mutation is unknown in some patients, indicating that the genetics of osteopetrosis still deserves intense research efforts.
