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

Due to life-threatening complications, vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is the most severe form of EDS. Because the syndrome is associated with a shortened life expectancy and variable clinical presentation, diagnosis confirmed by genetic testing is crucial to determining appropriate treatment. Despite some distinguishing features, this rare disease often goes unrecognized. Apart from surgical or endovascular treatment of serious vascular complications, medical treatment based on celiprolol helps reduce arterial complications. We report on a case of vEDS in a young man who suffered several episodes of severe vascular complications. The diagnosis of vEDS was established based on clinical manifestations and confirmed by genetic testing. A novel heterozygous pathogenic variant in the COL3A1 gene was found. To our knowledge, this is the first case of vEDS caused by this variant.
