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

Craniosynostosis constitutes one of the most common congenital cranial malformations, affecting approximately 6/10,0000 live births. A genetic etiology has long been known for several forms of syndromic craniosynostosis, including pathogenic variants in TWIST1 and FGFR3 in children with Saethre-Chotzen and Muenke syndrome. Over the last decade, reports of genetic aberrations in TCF12 in children with craniosynostosis have emerged, in particular in cases with premature closure of the coronal suture(s). In this study, we, therefore, systematically reviewed the rapidly growing knowledge of TCF12-related coronal craniosynostosis, clearly illustrating its high degree of genotype and phenotype variability. With the two novel cases presented, at least 113 cases of TCF12-related coronal craniosynostosis have currently been reported. By pooling data from several prospectively collected undifferentiated craniosynostosis cohorts (n
