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

Autosomal-dominant hypertension and brachydactyly syndrome (HTNB; Bilginturan syndrome) is known to cause stroke before age 50 when untreated. We report a novel PDE3A gene mutation in a mother and daughter affected with dominant brachydactyly of the hands and feet, a short stature, and hypertension. The hypertension was medically responsive to anti-hypertensive treatment. The 3-bp deletion in the PDE3A gene presented de novo in the mother. Here, we expand the list of PDE3A mutations identified in Bilginturan syndrome and emphasize the importance of standardized genetic testing of HTNB patients to improve diagnostics at an early age. We recommend extended phenotyping in patients with brachydactyly, a short stature or hypertension in clinical practice.
