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

Introduction: Weaver syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by distinctive facial features, pre- and post-natal overgrowth, macrocephaly, and variable developmental delay. The characteristic facial features are ocular hypertelorism, a broad forehead, almond-shaped palpebral fissures and, in early childhood, large, fleshy ears, a pointed "stuck-on" chin with horizontal skin creases, and retrognathia. Heterozygous pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in the enhancer of zeste homolog 2 ( Case Presentation: Here, we report a male patient with a heterozygous likely pathogenic variant in EZH2 gene who has tall stature, distinctive facial features, mild development delay, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy with a MRI finding of periventricular leukomalacia, gingival hypertrophy, and early onset high hypermetropia. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the importance of reporting detailed molecular and clinical findings in patients to expand the genotypic and phenotypic findings of this rare syndrome.
