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

Camptodactyly is a genetic disorder that causes fixed flexion deformity of one or more fingers of single or both hands. It is very rare and the occurrence is very low amongst the children. It is linked to a handful of congenital connective tissue syndromes. It is passed onto generations with reduced expressivity. However, its association with benign joint hypermobility syndrome is rarely known. Joint hypermobility syndrome is a condition where there is extreme joint flexibility and it is related to a set of articular and extra-articular sequelae. We herein report a case of camptodactyly with benign joint hypermobility syndrome in a patient presenting with fixed flexion deformity of the fingers, joint hyperextensibility, and striae.
