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

Noonan syndrome (NS) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by aberrant up-regulated signaling through RAS GTPase. It is characterized by facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, malformations of rib cage bones, bleeding problems, learning difficulties, or mild intellectual disability. Additional intracranial findings in NS patients include tumors, midline anomalies, and malformations of cortical development. In this report, we present the case of a young female patient, with a known diagnosis of Noonan syndrome that in complete well being developed two brain lesions, in the right nucleus pallidus and in the left cerebellar hemisphere respectively, whose location and signal on MRI looked similar to neurofibromatosis type 1 unidentified bright objects (UBOs), and whose spectroscopic characteristics excluded neoplasms.
