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

Purpose: To investigate the clinical findings in Chinese patients diagnosed with familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) and carrying pathogenic mutations. Methods: One hundred twenty unrelated patients with FEVR were enrolled in this study. Genomic DNA and ophthalmic examinations were collected from all the patients and their available relatives. Targeted next-generation sequencing was performed to detect mutations. In silico programs were used to evaluate the pathogenicity of all the mutations. Results: Eighty identified mutations were found in 81 unrelated patients (31/81 in LRP5, 25/81 in FZD4, 12/81 in TSPAN12, 8/81 in NDP, 4/81 in KIF11, and 1/81 in ZNF408). Among those mutations, 53 were novel (23/35 in LRP5, 15/21 in FZD4, 8/11 in TSPAN12, 3/8 in NDP, 3/4 in KIF11, 1/1 in ZNF408). Patients with LRP5, FZD4, TSPAN12, or NDP mutations were mainly classified into stage 4 and stage 5 and one-half of patients with KIF11 mutations were in stage 4. In addition, all the patients in NDP group were found to have bilateral symmetry in FEVR stage. Conclusions: Our results present profound phenotypic variability and a wide mutation spectrum of FEVR in the Chinese population, which could be useful for a precise and comprehensive genetic diagnosis for patients with FEVR in the future.
