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

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common hereditary neuropathy of the peripheral nervous system with a wide range of severity and age of onset. CMT patients share similar phenotypes which make it often impossible to identify the disease types based on clinical presentation and electrophysiological studies alone. In recent years, novel genetic diagnostic approaches such as whole exome sequencing (WES) has provided a ground for accurate diagnosis of CMT through identification of the disease-causing mutation(s). In the present study, that approach was effectively employed. Two unrelated large pedigrees with multiple affected cases of various pattern of inheritance (one autosomal dominant and one X-linked) were included. Clinical and electrophysiological data were obtained. DNA sample from each pedigree's proband was subjected to WES. Data analysis was performed using an in-house developed pipeline, adopted from GATK and ANNOVAR. Candidate variant segregation was evaluated by PCR-based Sanger sequencing. A known but extremely rare (unreported in the Middle Easterners) mutation in
