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: The aim of this study was to determine the potential genetic cause of retinal capillary hemangioblastoma (RCH) with symptoms of Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease. Case Presentations: Three Iranian families (5 RCH patients) with novel variants are included in this study. The Conclusion: The structural information and computational analysis of the identified variants are predicted to induce conformational changes that limit the flexibility of protein VHL interaction interface with Elongin B/C, Elongin C/B, and Cullin-2, which are necessary for hypoxia-inducible factor 1-α binding. The genetic variants identified in Iranian patients with RCH may aid in the molecular confirmation of other patients diagnosed with VHL and their at-risk family members. These pioneering results that include detailed structural and functional analysis of a variant's effect on the VHL protein may serve as a model for future studies.
