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

Thrombocytopenia with absent radii (TAR) syndrome is a rare genetic syndrome that occurs with a frequency of about 0.42 cases per 100,000 live births. It is characterized by hypo-megakaryocytic thrombocytopenia with bilateral absent radii and the presence of both thumbs. The thrombocytopenia is initially very severe, manifesting in the first few weeks to months of life, but subsequently improves with time to reach near normal values by one to two years of age. We present a case of a newborn with TAR syndrome with an atypical presentation of mild thrombocytopenia in the first week of life, with early normalization of platelet counts in the neonatal period. The patient deviates from the normal pattern in which 95% of patients with TAR syndrome usually develop significant thrombocytopenia (platelet counts of less than 50 x 10
