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

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal dystrophy caused by the loss of photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelial atrophy, leading to severe visual impairment or blindness. RP can be classified as nonsyndromic or syndromic with complex clinical phenotypes. Three unrelated Polish probands affected with retinitis pigmentosa coexisting with cerebellar ataxia were recruited for this study. Clinical heterogeneity and delayed appearance of typical disease symptoms significantly prolonged the patients' diagnostic process. Therefore, many clinical and genetic tests have been performed in the past. Here, we provide detailed clinical and genetic analysis results of the patients. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) and targeted NGS analysis allow the identification of four novel and two previously reported variants in the following genes:
