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

Primary microcephaly (PM) is a highly heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder with many contributing risk genes and loci identified to date. We report a consanguineous family with PM, intellectual disability and short stature. Using whole exome sequencing, we identified a homozygous frameshift variant in programmed cell death 6 interacting protein (PDCD6IP, c.154_158dup; p.Val54Profs*18). This gene, PDCD6IP, plays an important role in the endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) pathway in the abscission stage of cytokinesis and apoptosis, and is required for normal brain development in mice. The clinical features observed in our patient were similar to the phenotypes observed in mouse and zebrafish models of PDCD6IP mutations in previous studies. This study provides evidence that clinical manifestations of PDCD6IP mutations as seen in our patients with PM and ID may be a novel cause for neurodevelopmental disorders.
