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 new tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)-based approach for measurement of the enzymatic activity of palmitoyl protein thioesterase I (PPT1) in dried blood spots (DBS) is presented. Deficiency in this enzyme leads to infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL, Infantile Batten disease, CLN1). The assay could distinguish between 80 healthy newborns and three previously diagnosed INCL patients. Unlike the fluorimetric PPT1 assay, the MS/MS assay does not require recombinant β-glucosidase. Furthermore, the assay could be easily combined with a TPP1 enzyme assay (for CLN2 disease) and can be potentially multiplexed with a large panel of additional lysosomal enzyme assays by MS/MS for newborn screening and postscreening analysis.
