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

Purpose: To determine the clinical characteristics of familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) associated with or without pathogenic variants of the Norrin/β-catenin genes. Design: This was a multicenter, cross-sectional, observational, and genetic study. Subjects: Two-hundred eighty-one probands with FEVR were studied. Methods: Whole-exome sequence and/or Sanger sequence was performed for the Norrin/β-catenin genes, the Main Outcome Measures: The phenotype associated with or without pathogenic variants of the Norrin/β-catenin genes. Results: One-hundred eight probands (38.4%) had 88 different pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in the genes: 24 with the Conclusions: The results showed that the clinical characteristics of FEVR of patients with variants in the Norrin/β-catenin genes are different from those with other etiologies. We recommend that clinicians who diagnose a child with FEVR perform genetic testing so that the parents can be informed on the prognosis of the vision and general health in the child.
