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

purposeWe have observed that some preterm infants whose fundus appears very similar to eyes with familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) present with atypical retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). To establish a definitive diagnosis and explore the possible genetic mechanism of atypical ROP, we performed gene sequencing of these cases using next-generation sequencing technology.

methodsA retrospective review of infants who presented with atypical ROP from October 2013 to February 2017 was performed. The data included gender, gestational age at birth, birth weight, family history, systemic disorders, and age-appropriate ophthalmic examinations. Fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) of the parents was also performed. Peripheral blood was collected from the patients and their parents to sequence genes. Gene mutations were analysed.

resultsGenetic testing revealed that 9 infants had FEVR-related disease-causing gene mutations. Nine gene mutations were detected; 5 had already been reported, and the other 4 were novel. In the 18 eyes of these 9 patients, 9 eyes exhibited severe ROP. 5 cases had a positive family history.
