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 describe the varying phenotypic spectrum of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia (FDH) and to emphasize the need for identifying the condition in mildly affected females which is crucial for offering a prenatal diagnosis in subsequent pregnancy owing to the risk of having a severely affected baby.

methodsThe phenotype-genotype correlation of 4 patients with FDH, over a period of 11 y from the genetic clinic in a tertiary care centre from Kerala, India was done.

resultsAll four mutation proven patients were females (2 adults and 2 children). One of the adult female subjects were mildly affected, though she had a history of having a severely affected female child who expired on day six. Among the 2 affected children, one of them had an unaffected mother and the other had an affected mother.

conclusionsFDH has a wide clinical spectrum from very subtle findings to severe manifestations. The lethality of the condition in males and the disfigurement and multisystem involvement in females highlights the importance of confirmation of diagnosis by molecular analysis so that the family can be offered prenatal diagnosis in subsequent pregnancy.
