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

contextHyperparathyroidism-jaw tumour (HPT-JT) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant cause of familial hyperparathyroidism associated with ossifying fibromas (OF) of the maxillofacial bones and increased risk of parathyroid carcinoma, caused by inactivating germline mutation of the cell division cycle 73 (CDC73) gene.

objectiveTo report the first Romanian family with HPT-JT and genetic screening of CDC73 gene. SUBJECTS AND

methodsMutational analysis of the CDC73 gene and genetic screening of the family of a proband with HPT-JT. Histological diagnosis of parathyroid tumors (WHO criteria) and immunohistochemistry (parafibromin) were performed.

resultsThree of the six screened family members had evidence of PHPT and surgically proven parathyroid tumours. Two of the three affected members had parathyroid carcinomas and one had two parathyroid adenomas. Genetic screening of CDC73 gene revealed that 4 of 6 patients showed a heterozygous germline deletion of one nucleotide: c.128-IVS1+1 delG. All the three affected patients, resulted to be carriers of the CDC73 mutation, but each one bearing a different CDC73 polymorphism.

conclusionsWe identified a new CDC73 germline mutation in a Romanian family of HPT-JT. Analysis of clinical phenotypes in the four mutated individuals confirmed the incomplete penetrance and the variable clinical expression of the disease.
