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

backgroundFloating Harbor syndrome (FHS) is a rare genetic disorder with over 100 reported cases worldwide and less than 30 treated with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH). This article reports the clinical characteristics of a child with FHS and the effect of rhGH on height increase. The patient in this case exhibits the most typical features of FHS. Whole exome sequencing (WES) detected a pathogenic variant (c.7303 C > T, p.R2435X) in the SRCAP gene of this patient, which is a denovo variant. Has good sensitivity to rhGH treatment. The literature review included 28 children who received rhGH treatment, most of whom showed an increase in height SDS without any adverse reactions.

conclusionFor patients with characteristic clinical manifestations, the diagnosis of FHS should be considered, and further pathogenic gene sequencing analysis should be performed to assist in the diagnosis. The genetic characteristic is a heterozygous nonsense mutation of the SRCAP gene. rhGH treatment is an effective treatment method for FHS.
