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

(1) Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, the symptoms of which include both ocular and systemic abnormalities. In the studied subjects, the cornea was significantly opacified with peripheral scarring neovascularization, which is not specific to this syndrome. A suspicion of incorrect diagnosis was raised despite an initial diagnosis of a bilateral Chandler syndrome. (2) In order to provide the proper diagnosis, a DNA sequencing genetic test was conducted with three sisters carrying the presence of a genome imbalance in the FOXC1 gene. The aim of this study is to report a case of a Polish family with a novel gene mutation and its relation with ARS. (3) Our findings implicate the novel deletion of the FOXC1 gene in the pathogenesis of ARS in the affected family. The phenotypic variability observed, including differences in corneal and systemic anomalies, underscores the importance of genetic testing and suggests the influence of non-genetic factors on ARS manifestation.
