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

Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare condition characterized by abnormal bone mineralization. The manifestations of HPP vary from no symptoms to intrauterine fetal death; short stature is another indication of HPP. A 3 ½-year-old boy presented with short stature, transient hypercalcemia, and mild gait disturbance without definite bony deformity. Laboratory examination revealed transient hypercalcemia, normal phosphorous and 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels, and mildly low alkaline phosphatase levels. A targeted next-generation sequencing panel associated with inborn errors of metabolism revealed a pathogenic heterozygous mutation in the ALPL gene, c.979T>C (p.Phe327Leu). When a child visits a hospital with short stature, decreased height velocity, and low alkaline phosphatase level, clinicians should consider the possibility of HPP even if definite skeletal dysplasia is not evident.
