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

backgroundA range of clinical features have been confirmed with heterozygous mutations in Beta Tubulin (TUBB), including skin creases, facial deformities, abnormal cerebral structures, and intellectual disability, and were defined as Circumferential Skin Creases Kunze type (CSC-KT).

methodsClinical information was obtained retrospectively on a neonate hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Wuhan Children's Hospital. Genomic DNA was extracted from circulating leukocytes of the proband according to standard procedures.

resultsThe neonate presented dyspnea resulting from diaphragmatic paralysis, accompanied by other typical features of CSC-KT. Additionally, exome sequencing confirmed a new variant (NM_178,014. 4: c. 1114 A > G) in TUBB. We also summarized features described in previous cases, thus representing phenotype extension of CSC-KT.

conclusionOur report is the youngest confirmed case, which could extend the current phenotype of CSC-KT as well as the clinical diagnostic approach.
