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

In this report, we described a large Han-Chinese family which presents with various phenotypes from unaffected to manifested nystagmus in females. Infantile nystagmus (IN) is characterized by bilateral, involuntary, and periodic eyeball oscillation, occurring at birth or within the first 6 months. The most common inheritance pattern of IN is an X-linked form with incomplete penetrance among females, and the FERM domain containing 7 gene (FRMD7) is a main disease-causing gene. A combination of exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing, as well as detailed clinical examinations were performed on the Chinese IN family. An FRMD7 c.47T>C (p.Phe16Ser) variant was proposed as the disease-causing variant. Incomplete penetrance was found in females with the FRMD7 c.47T>C variant, and hemizygous male affected subjects presented more severe manifestations compared to heterozygous female affected subjects. These findings could enhance genetic counseling and antenatal diagnosis of IN.
