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

Metaphyseal chondrodysplasia, Schmid type (MDSC) is a rare inherited autosomal disorder with characteristic skeletal deformities striking on radiological imaging, which includes metaphyseal cupping and fraying. Physical examination reveals short stature in early childhood, frontoparietal bossing, rachitic rosary, genu varum and valgum, and coxa vara usually. We believe that the constellation of clinical and radiographic findings of MDSC might look similar to vitamin D resistant rickets; hence, genetic analysis is needed to overcome diagnostic challenges faced by physicians to avoid unnecessary vitamin D supplementation in individuals. We report the first case of MDSC with a coexisting factor VII deficiency in an eight-year-old boy.
