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

backgroundTourette syndrome (TS) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) characterized by multiple chronic involuntary motor and vocal tics with onset during childhood or adolescence. Most TS patients present with additional comorbidities, typically attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive- compulsive disorder (OCD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Both TS and ID are genetically complex disorders that likely occur as a result of the effects of multiple genes interacting with other environmental factors. In addition to single gene mutations and chromosomal disorders, copy number variations (CNVs) are implicated across many NDDs and ID and contribute to their shared genetic etiology. Screening of CNVs using microarray-based Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) is now routinely performed in all subjects with NDD and ID. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 12-year-old girl diagnosed with Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome associated to behavior disorders and intellectual disability in particular with regard to language. Array-CGH analysis showed a CNV of a subtelomeric region Xq28 (gain of 260 kb) inherited from the healthy father. The duplication contains two genes,

conclusionsAlthough the trisomy of the 260 kb region from Xq28 identified in proband is also shared by the healthy father, it is tantalizing to speculate that, together with genetic risk factors inherited from the mother, it may play a role in the development of a form of Tourette syndrome with intellectual disability. This hypothesis is also supported by the fact that both genes present in the duplicated region (
