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

Focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) or Goltz syndrome is a rare X-linked dominant multisystemic disease involving the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. About 95% of the cases appear de novo, and 90% of them are females. Recently, the studies revealed that FDH is caused by a mutation in the PORCN gene. We report a case of unilateral FDH or Goltz syndrome in a 16-year-old girl presenting with hypopigmented-reticulated atrophic macules and patches in a linear pattern distributed along the lines of Blaschko over the right side of the face and the right arm. Also she is having hypoplasia of the right breast with dental enamel abnormality and partial anodontia in the lower jaw. Sparse hair and partial alopecia on the right side (scalp, eyebrows, and eyelashes) were also observed.
