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

Achondroplasia is the most common form of dwarfism, caused by a mutation in fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 gene, leading to multiple pathological conditions. Herein, we present a case of an infant with achondroplasia associated with hydrocephalus and severe foramen magnum stenosis. Computed tomography (CT) venography showed prominent suboccipital emissary veins comprising major venous drainage routes and hypoplastic transverse sinuses, which increased the risk of foramen magnum decompression. The infant was initially treated with ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt. After 8 months, CT venography showed regression of suboccipital emissary veins and more prominent transverse sinuses. Subsequently, foramen magnum decompression was safely performed without sacrificing major venous drainage routes.
