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

Heterozygous disease-causing variants in BCL11B are the basis of a rare neurodevelopmental syndrome with craniofacial and immunological involvement. Isolated craniosynostosis, without systemic or immunological findings, has been reported in one of the 17 individuals reported with this disorder till date. We report three additional individuals harboring de novo heterozygous frameshift variants, all lying in the exon 4 of BCL11B. All three individuals presented with the common findings of this disorder i.e. developmental delay, recurrent infections with immunologic abnormalities and facial dysmorphism. Notably, craniosynostosis of variable degree was seen in all three individuals. We, thus add to the evolving genotypes and phenotypes of BCL11B-related BAFopathy and also review the clinical, genomic spectrum along with the underlying disease mechanisms of this disorder.
