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

Background: Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is characterized by obesity, cognitive abnormalities, rod-cone dystrophy, skeletal abnormalities, and many other secondary features. Case Presentation: We describe a 28-year-old man presented with postaxial polydactyly, retinitis pigmentosa, obesity, hypogonadism and learning difficulties. Renal insufficiency in form of acute kidney injury was the presenting feature and this explain the worse outcome. The diagnosis was delayed despite being classic. This delay in diagnosis leads to a lot of complications that worsen the patient's condition. Conclusion: The characteristics of BBS should be noted by doctors because an early diagnosis will result in a better outcome. The case was prone to numerous consequences due to the delay in diagnosis, which could have been avoided if an early diagnosis had been established.
