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

Marfan syndrome (MFS), an inherited connective tissue disorder, is caused by a mutation in the FBN1 gene. MFS is characterized by manifestations in the musculoskeletal system (joint laxity, scoliosis), the cardiovascular system (aortic dilation), and the ocular system (ectopic lens). We report a case of a 37-year-old male with a genetically confirmed MFS. His mother and brother were also both confirmed cases of MFS. While the patient exhibited the characteristic physical features of MFS in general appearance, he did not show any cardiac manifestations of the disease. This report highlights a case of the familial occurrence of MFS and emphasizes the importance of recognizing the forme fruste of MFS.
