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

The MSX homeobox genes cause Goldenhar syndrome (GHS) or facio-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia, a rare developmental defect. Its exact etiology is still unknown. Its incidence lies between 1: 3500 and 1: 5600. In 85% of the cases, the unilateral face is affected. Typical clinical findings in a classic GHS include eye disorders, ear irregularities (with or without hearing loss), facial impairments, dental and oral ailments, cardiac syndromes, central nervous system (CNS) involvement, trachea and lung malformations, kidney and gastrointestinal defects, and skeletal alterations. This case report presents a follow-up case of Goldenhar Syndrome in a 12-year-old female, with no relevant family history, diagnosed with anotia on the left side, cyanosis, and facial asymmetry at birth. She presented with moderate growth failure, bilateral sclerosing mastoiditis and kyphoscoliosis. She underwent posterior scoliosis correction posterior instrumented fusion from D1 to D11.
