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

objectivesCharcot-Marie-tooth disease type 4 (CMT4D) is an autosomal recessive form of Charcot-Marie-tooth disease with an earlier age of onset and greater severity, compared to other types of this disease. CMT4C and CMT4D are the most prevalent subtypes in Mediterranean countries due to the higher rate of consanguineous marriage. In this study, we aimed to identify p.R148X mutation in MATERIALS &

methodsA total of 24 CMT4D patients, who were referred to Iran Special Medical Center, were clinically and electrophysiologically evaluated in this study. DNA was extracted from the patients' blood samples. Next, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was carried out, and the products were sequenced and analyzed in FinchTV software.

resultsNone of the target mutations were found in this study. Sequencing of

conclusionDespite the high rate of mutations in some populations, it seems that they are very rare in Iranian CMT4D patients. Regarding the association of SNP rs1025476 with CMT4D, further assessments are needed to reach a better understanding of genetic markers and their genetic features and to propose better diagnostic and treatment plans for the Iranian population.
