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

Crouzon syndrome is a rare form of syndromic craniosynostosis (SC) characterized by premature fusion of the cranial and facial sutures, elevated intracranial pressure, varying degrees of ocular exposure due to exorbitism, and airway compromise caused by midface retrusion. Craniolacunae and upper and lower extremity anomalies are not frequently found in Crouzon syndrome. We present a girl with Crouzon syndrome caused by c.1040 C > G, p.Ser347Cys, a pathogenic mutation in the FGFR2 gene with atypical characteristics, including craniolacunae resembling severe Swiss cheese type of bone formation, and upper and lower extremity anomalies which are more commonly associated with Pfeiffer syndrome patients. Distinguishing between severe Crouzon syndrome patients and patients who have mild and/or moderate Pfeiffer syndrome can be challenging even for an experienced craniofacial surgeon. An accurate genotype diagnosis is essential to distinguishing between these syndromes, as it provides predictors for neurosurgical complications and facilitates appropriate family counseling related to long-term outcomes.
