Familial Aggregation in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis.
Observational study in Otolaryngology--head and neck surgery : official journal of American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
objectiveTo evaluate inheritance patterns and define the familial clustering rate of idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS). STUDY
designRetrospective observational study.
settingInternational multicenter collaborative of >30 tertiary care centers.
methodsPatients with a clinically confirmed iSGS diagnosis within the North American Airway Collaborative's iSGS
resultsA total of 810 patients with iSGS were identified. Positive family history for iSGS was reported in 44 patients in 20 families. The rate of familial clustering in iSGS is 2.5%. Mean age of disease onset is 42.6 years. Of the 44 patients with familial aggregation of iSGS, 42 were female and 2 were male; 13 were mother-daughter pairs and 2 were father-daughter pairs. There were 3 sister-sister pairs. There was 1 niece-aunt pair and 2 groups of 3 family members. One pedigree demonstrated 2 affected mother-daughter pairs, with the mothers being first-degree paternal cousins. Inheritance is non-Mendelian, and anticipation is present in 11 of 13 (84%) parent-offspring pairs. The mean age of onset between parents (48.4 years) and offspring (36.1 years) was significantly different (
conclusionThis study quantifies the rate of familial clustering of iSGS at 2.5%. Inheritance is non-Mendelian, and disease demonstrates anticipation. These data suggest that there may be a genetic contribution in iSGS.
