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

The diagnostic yield of genetic testing for ocular/oculocutaneous albinism (OA/OCA) in a diverse pediatric population in the United States (U.S.) is unclear. Phenotypes of 53 patients who presented between 2006-2022 with OA/OCA were retrospectively correlated with genetic testing results. Genetic diagnostic yield was defined as detection of pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant(s) matching the anticipated inheritance for that gene-disease relationship. Variant reclassifications of those with variants of uncertain significance (VUS) and without positive diagnostic yield were completed. Overall initial genetic diagnostic yield of OA/OCA was 66%. There was no significant difference (
