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

The role of glucosylsphingosine (lyso-Gb1), a downstream metabolic product of glucosylceramide, for monitoring treated and untreated children with Gaucher disease (GD) has not yet been studied. We reviewed the clinical charts of 81 children (<18 years), 35 with mild type 1 GD (GD1), 34 with severe GD1 and 12 with type 3 GD (GD3), followed at Shaare Zedek Medical Center between 2014-2018. Disease severity for GD1 was based on genotypes. Forty children (87%) with severe GD1 and GD3 received enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) compared to two children (6%) with mild GD1. Lyso-Gb1 measurements were conducted on dried blood spot samples taken at each clinic visit. Lyso-Gb1 levels were significantly lower in children with mild compared to severe GD1 (
