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: Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive disorder with high clinical heterogeneity. A-T may present in complicated variable forms, including classic A-T and milder form of AT. Contrary to the classic A-T, the milder form does not present the cardinal features of A-T such as ataxia and telangiectasia. A few Methods: An A-T pedigree with predominant dystonia was collected. Genetic testing was performed by targeted panel of genes involved in movement disorders. The candidate variants were further confirmed by Sanger sequencing. We then reviewed previously published literatures of genetically confirmed A-T cases with predominant dystonia and summarized the clinical characteristics of dystonia-dominant A-T. Results: Two novel Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first report of A-T patient with predominant dystonia in China. Dystonia may appear as one of the predominant manifestations or initial symptom of A-T. Early ATM genetic testing should be considered for those patients with predominant dystonia, despite without accompanying ataxia or telangiectasia.
