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

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a genetic disorder of the vasculature, characterized by epistaxis, telangiectasia and arteriovenous malformations in multiple organs. We herein report a 49-year-old woman with a history of early-onset myocardial infarction and intracranial aneurysms, in whom we incidentally detected multiple hepatic vascular abnormalities. We subsequently diagnosed her with HHT after discovering gastrointestinal telangiectases and a pulmonary arteriovenous fistula along with a history of recurrent epistaxis. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a novel pathogenic variant in SMAD4, a relatively rare causative gene for HHT. This case highlights the fact that HHT patients may present with asymptomatic liver lesions.
