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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesFibrillin-1 (FBN1) mutations cause connective tissue dysgenesis the main ocular manifestation being ectopia lentis (EL), which may be syndromic or non-syndromic. We describe a pedigree with a FBN1 mutation causing non-syndromic EL with retinal detachment (RRD) and their management. SUBJECTS/

methodsPatients with familial EL with RRD were invited to participate (vitreoretinopathy branch of Target 5000, the Irish inherited retinal degeneration study). All patients signed full informed consent. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Mater Hospital, Dublin and abided by the Declaration of Helsinki.

resultsSeven adults were affected with bilateral EL. All subjects had RRD with bilateral non-synchronous RRD in 57%.

conclusionsThe FBN1 variant described herein confers an increased risk of both EL and RRD and can now be upgraded to 'pathogenic' ACMG status.
