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

backgroundPolyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD) is an uncommon developmental bone disease in which normal bone and marrow are replaced by pseudotumoral tissue. The etiology of PFD is unclear, but it is generally thought to be caused by sporadic, post-zygotic mutations in the CASE SUMMARY: A 27-year-old female presented with unbearable bone pain in her left foot for 4 years. Multiple bone lesions were detected by radiographic examinations, and a diagnosis of PFD was made after a biopsy of her left calcaneus with symptoms including pre-axial polydactyly on her left hand and severe ophthalmological problems such as high myopia, vitreous opacity, and choroidal atrophy. Her serum cortisol level was high, consistent with Cushing syndrome. Due to consanguineous marriage of her grandparents, boosted whole exome screening was performed to identify gene mutations. The results revealed mutations in

conclusionThe unique findings in this patient with PFD may be related to mutations in the
