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

A complete ophthalmic examination is not routinely performed on infants with Miller-Dieker syndrome (MDS, chromosome 17p13.3 microdeletion). The authors present the cases of four cousins with MDS who also carried a 16p13.3 microduplication (not associated with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome). Retinopathy of prematurity-like proliferative peripheral retinopathy (PPR) was detected in two male first cousins, but was not detected in the female half-cousins. PPR in the first infant resolved by 4 months, but the second infant's PPR progressed, requiring photocoagulation followed by lens-sparing vitrectomy. While ocular abnormalities are more prevalent and severe in other lissencephalopathies, the PPR in these MDS infants underscores the sight-saving potential of performing an ophthalmologic exam with early molecular testing for all lissencephaly infants.
