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 and aims: Fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAODs) are a group of autosomal recessive metabolic diseases included in many newborn screening (NBS) programs, but the incidence and disease spectrum vary widely between ethnic groups. We aimed to elucidate the incidence, disease spectrum, and genetic features of FAODs in a southern Chinese population. Materials and methods: The FAODs screening results of 643,606 newborns from 2014 to 2022 were analyzed. Results: Ninety-two patients were eventually diagnosed with FAODs, of which 61 were PCD, 20 were MADD, 5 were SCADD, 4 were VLCADD, and 2 were CPT-IAD. The overall incidence of FAODs was 1:6996 (95 % CI: 1:5814-1:8772) newborns. All PCD patients had low C0 levels during NBS, while nine patients (14.8 %) had normal C0 levels during the recall review. All but one MADD patients had elevated C8, C10, and C12 levels during NBS, while eight patients (40 %) had normal acylcarnitine levels during the recall review. The most frequent Conclusion: The prevalence, disease spectrum, and genetic characteristics of FAODs in a southern Chinese population were clarified. PCD was the most common FAOD, followed by MADD. Hotspot variants were found in
