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

There is still more to learn about the etiology of extremely uncommon developmental disorders. A heterozygous or hemizygous pathogenic variation in male-specific lethal 3 (MSL3) causes the uncommon X-linked condition known as Basilicata-Akhtar syndrome, which is characterized by a global developmental delay that is evident from infancy, feeding difficulties, and muscle hypotonia. Thus far, over 40 cases have been documented. Here, we report the first case of Basilicata-Akhtar syndrome in India. A 3-year-old boy presented with global development delay. Physical examination revealed dysmorphism and hypotonia. After whole exome sequencing, exon 8 of the MSL3 gene on chromosome X showed evidence of a hemizygous single base pair deletion.
