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

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a heterogeneous group of connective tissue disorders comprised of several types. Classic EDS is an autosomal dominant disorder with stretchable skin, delayed wound healing with poor scarring, joint hypermobility with subluxations or dislocations, easy bruisability, hernias, aneurysms and cardiac abnormalities. Advances in genomics technology using next-generation sequencing has led to the discovery of causative genes for connective tissue disorders, hereditary cardiomyopathies and cardiovascular diseases including several genes for connective tissue disorders. A 55 year-old male exhibited thin stretchable skin, atrophic scars, easy bruising, joint pain and dislocations requiring multiple knee surgeries and a Beighton hyperflexibility score of 6 out of 7. He was found to have a heterozygous missense
