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

Recently, variants in DONSON have been reported to cause different disorders of the microcephalic primordial dwarfism spectrum. Using whole-exome sequencing, we identified two novel, compound heterozygous DONSON variants in a pair of siblings, one of whom was previously diagnosed with Fanconi anemia. This occurred because the present cases exhibited clinical findings in addition to those of the microcephalic primordial dwarfism disorder, including severe limb malformations. These findings suggest that the DONSON and Fanconi anemia proteins could have supplementary roles in developmental processes as they have in the maintenance of genomic integrity, resulting in related disease phenotypes.
