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

Purpose: To describe the phenotype of CLN-associated retinal dystrophy in a subset of patients at the Columbia University Medical Center, United States, and the Hospital das Clínicas de Pernambuco, Brazil, in comparison to the published literature. Methods: Eleven patients with confirmed biallelic variants in the CLN genes were evaluated via dilated fundus examination, clinical imaging, and full-field electroretinogram. A thorough literature search was conducted to determine previously published variants and associated phenotypes. Results: Genetic testing confirmed the presence of variants in CLN3, CLN7/MFSD8, CLN8, and GRN/CLN11. Five novel variants were identified, and four novel phenotypes of previously published alleles were described. The phenotype differed among patients with variants in the same gene and sometimes among patients with the same allele. Conclusions: Substantial phenotypic variability among variants in the CLN genes makes identification of genotype-phenotype or allele-phenotype correlations challenging. Further study is required to establish an extensive database for adequate patient counseling.
