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

backgroundPeroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBD) affect multiple organ systems. It is characterized by neurological dysfunction, hypotonia, ocular anomalies, craniofacial abnormalities, and absence of peroxisomes in fibroblasts. PBDs are associated with mutations in any of fourteen different

methodsWe recruited two Saudi families with multiple affected individuals with dysmorphic features, including hypertelorism, large open fontanelles, generalized hypotonia, and epicanthal folds with poor reflexes since birth. Whole exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing was performed to identify the genetic cause. The frequency and pathogenicity of the identified mutations were assessed using various online bioinformatics tools.

resultsWES identified a novel nonsense variant (c.367C > T) in the

conclusionThe present study has added a novel nonsense mutation to the mutation spectrum of
