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

Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare disease caused by a deficiency of hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS), the third enzyme of the heme-synthesis pathway. Decreased enzymatic activity in the liver induces an overproduction of heme-precursors and acute neurological attacks. We report a 36-years-old female with AIP with a long-term history of severe, disabling, recurrent attacks, who underwent curative liver transplantation. Tissue samples from the explant were obtained for transcriptome analysis. Whole RNA was extracted and 16 gene-transcripts were selected and investigated by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. These included nine genes encoding enzymes that consecutively catalyze heme-synthesis and catabolism in the liver (
