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

backgroundBranchio-Oto-Renal (BOR) Syndrome is a rare autosomal disorder with a wide variety of clinical manifestations and a high degree of heterogeneity. Typical clinical manifestations of BOR syndrome include deafness, preauricular fistula, abnormal gill slits, and renal malformations. However, atypical phenotypes such as congenital hip dysplasia, congenital heart anomaly or facial nerve paresis are rare in BOR syndrome, and this might be easily misdiagnosed with other congenital disorders. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 5-month-old boy of BOR syndrome with "congenital heart defects and proteinuria" as clinical features. Initially, as this case mainly presented with symptoms of recurrent respiratory infections and was found to be with congenital heart disease and proteinuria at the local hospital, but he only was diagnosed with congenital heart disease combined with pulmonary infection and anti-infective and supportive treatment was given. Subsequently, during the physical examination at our hospital, left side preauricular pit and branchial fistulae on the right neck were found. Subsequent evaluation of auditory brainstem response and distortion product otoacoustic emission were revealed sensorineural hearing impairment. Results of renal ultrasonography showed small kidneys. Genetic analysis revealed a microdeletion at chromosome 8q13.2-q13.3 encompassing EYA1 gene, this patient was finally diagnosed with BOR syndrome. Then, this patient received transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure and hearing aid treatment. Proteinuria, renal function and hearing ability are monitoring by nephrologist and otologist. The patient is currently being followed up until 3 months after discharge and his condition is stable.

conclusionCareful physical examination, detailed history and the implementation of diagnostic laboratory tests can reduce the incidence of misdiagnosis. Genetic sequencing analysis of patients is a key guide to the differential diagnosis of BOR syndrome.
