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

objectivesOsteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders of connective tissue that cause skeletal fragility and extra-skeletal manifestations. Classically, four different types of OI were distinguished. Type 5 OI was added due to its distinct clinical and radiographic features. In 2012, two independent groups identified a recurrent heterozygous c.-14C>T mutation in

methodsAfter institutional review board approval, a retrospective review identified 13 patients with type 5 OI. Clinical, radiologic, and genetic data from 2002 to 2020 were reviewed.

resultsWe identified 13 patients with clinical diagnosis of type 5 OI. Twelve had molecular confirmation and the classic

conclusionsCervical kyphosis appears to be a common feature of type 5 OI. It can be a presenting and apparently life-long association and does not appear to be caused by vertebral body fractures. Evaluation for cervical kyphosis should be performed in patients with a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of type 5 OI. Furthermore, if cervical kyphosis is noted in an individual with OI, type 5 OI should be considered.Level of evidence: IV.
