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: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a unique, highly penetrant neuro-cutaneous disorder with a wide range of manifestations. Though the clinical diagnosis of NF1 is straight forward, there can be other disorders which mimic NF1, especially its cutaneous features. Here we describe the clinical and mutation spectrum of a series of individuals whose primary diagnosis was NF1 or NF1 related disorders. Methods: We have screened 29 unrelated individuals who fulfilled the clinical criteria of NF1. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was done in all individuals except one with suspected microdeletion syndrome with NF1 in whom Cytogenetic microarray (CMA) was done. Results: Out of 29 suspected patients, 25 had germline pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants involving Conclusion: We hereby present the wide range of manifestations in different age groups and the mutation spectrum ranging from small scale variants to contiguous gene deletion syndromes involving
