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

Introduction: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare genetic disorder with a prevalence of 1/86,000-1/32,000. Pathogenic variants in the Case Presentation: This report highlights an interesting and infrequent case of a neonate with severe midface hypoplasia and multiple congenital anomalies, which were noted on the 2nd trimester antenatal scan. The degree of hypoplasia was indicative of chondrodysplasia punctata, but there was no relevant pregnancy history or other features of a skeletal dysplasia. The pregnancy was complicated by preterm premature rupture of membranes. The neonate was born at 27 weeks of gestation and died 16 days later, due to complications of prematurity. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel de novo Conclusion: Although midface hypoplasia has been previously reported in individuals with KS, the severity noted in the index individual is an unusual feature of the syndrome.
