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

backgroundThis study aims to investigate the clinical characterization and causative genetic defect of a four-generation Chinese family with autosomal dominant aniridia.

methodsThe recruited family members underwent comprehensive routine and ophthalmic examinations, and Sanger sequencing was performed to screen the mutation in PAX6.

resultsA novel heterozygous PAX6 deletion c.435_445delTAGCGAAAAGC (p.Ser146ThrfsX9) in exon 7 was identified in all affected individuals, but this was absent in any of the unaffected family members and in the 200 unrelated controls.

conclusionA novel deletion in the PAX6 gene was identified in a Chinese family associated with aniridia, which expands the spectrum of the PAX6 mutation and its associated phenotype.
