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

objectiveWhereas a few studies have evaluated vestibular involvement in Fabry disease (FD), the relationship between vestibular/oculomotor abnormalities and disease-specific biomarkers remain unclear. Therefore, we seek to evaluate these quantitatively and analyze their relationship with disease phenotype and biomarkers in FD.

methodsThis cohort study enrolled 37 Chinese FD patients registered in our center. The vestibular/oculomotor examinations were performed, including the videonystagmography, the caloric test and the video head-impulse test. Statistical analyses were made between different subgroups of patients.

resultsVisuo-oculomotor dysfunctions were found in 30/37 (81.1%) patients. Vestibulo-oculomotor dysfunctions were revealed in 9/22 (40.9%) patients. Statistical tests showed: (1) significantly higher Mainz Severity Score Index in patients with prolonged saccade latency [20(18,33) VS 13(9,22),

conclusionA high incidence of extensive vestibular and oculomotor dysfunction was observed in patients with FD, with the neuro-otological dysfunction being closely related to the disease burden and biomarkers like α-Gal A activity and lyso-Gb3.
