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: Incontinentia pigmenti (IP), also known as Bloch-Sulzberger syndrome, is an X-linked dominant genetic disease involving multiple systems. Previous literature has not reported the case of parents with negative genetic test results, and typical early clinical symptoms and auxiliary inspection results were also lacking. Case Report: A female child was found to have broken skin immediately after birth with no family inheritance disease, and the area of the broken skin increased. Immediately afterward, Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed multiple blood lesions in the brain. Then, the wide-angle digital retinal imaging system suggesting that fundus fluorescein angiography showed fundus vascular loop-like changes. And blood genetic testing showed that exons 4-10 of the NEMO gene located in Xq28 were deleted. The patient was eventually diagnosed with IP. However, her parents were a non-consanguineous healthy couple, with no specific skin, oral, or perineal diseases. And her parents' blood genetic testing showed that the parents and sisters of the patient did not have the NEMO gene exon deletion of Xq28. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the process from suspected neonatal IP cases without familial inheritance to diagnosis, which showed the typical early clinical symptoms and auxiliary inspection results. This case showed that the parents of patients with IP do not necessarily have clinical symptoms and positive symptoms of genetic testing results.
