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

purposeChiari I malformation (CIM) is a common pediatric neurologic anomaly which could be associated with a variety of genetic disorders. However, it is not always clear whether the observed associations between CIM and RASopathies are real or random. The knowledge of the real association could provide useful guidance to clinicians. Furthermore, it could help to better understand the still unknown genetic etiology of CIM. METHOD AND

resultsWe reviewed the current knowledge of CIM and RASopathies in the paper. Here, we describe one patient with CIM and Noonan syndrome and three patients with CIM and neurofibromatosis type 1. Three of the four patients underwent standard surgical therapy of Chiari decompression and had a straightforward recovery without further complications from surgery.

conclusionIn RASopathy, imaging of the nervous system may be necessary. With the increase in availability of magnetic resonance imaging, we believe that there will be a growing body of evidence to suggest that CIM is more commonly seen in RASopathy. Future studies should attempt to elucidate the pathogenic mechanism responsible for CIM mediated by the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway.
