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

Here we present two siblings, a 9-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl at presentation, with congenital erythrocytosis due to an EPOR c.1316G>A (p.Trp439Term) mutation. The patients had nausea, abdominal pain, and headache when they presented with hemoglobin levels of 23 g/dL and 19.4 g/dL, respectively. Their father, paternal uncle, and probably the paternal aunt and grandmother had congenital erythrocytosis. The siblings generally preferred to visit hospital when hyperviscosity symptoms developed and had intermittent phlebotomies. Their compliance to anti-aggregant and hematinic treatment was not satisfactory. Within the 11-year follow-up period, the siblings had no thrombohemorrhagic complications, whereas their 39-year-old uncle had a stroke. In addition to antiaggregant treatment, phlebotomy during hyperviscosity symptoms may be safe in children and adolescents; routine phlebotomies may be recommended to adults to prevent thrombohemorrhagic complications.
