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

We present the case of a 58-year-old female patient with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). She was born to parents with a consanguineous marriage. Chest computed tomography conducted at age 41 years indicated no situs inversus, and findings of bronchiectasis were limited to the middle and lingular lobes. Despite long-term macrolide therapy, bronchiectasis exacerbations frequently occurred. PCD was suspected because of the low nasal nitric oxide level (20.7 nL/min). Electron microscopy revealed outer and inner dynein arm defects, and a genetic analysis identified a homozygous single-nucleotide deletion in the DNAAF1 gene. Based on these results, the patient was diagnosed with PCD due to a biallelic DNAAF1 mutation.
