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

Purpose: Genetic defects that impair growth plate chondrogenesis cause a phenotype that varies from skeletal dysplasia to mild short stature with or without other syndromic features. In many individuals with impaired skeletal growth, the genetic causes remain unknown. Method: Exome sequence was performed in 3 unrelated families with short stature, distinctive facies, and neurodevelopmental abnormalities. The impact of identified variants was studied in vitro. Results: Exome sequencing identified variants in Conclusion: In combination with prior studies of WASH complex proteins, our findings provide evidence that the WASH complex is required for normal skeletal growth and that, consequently, genetic abnormalities impairing the function of the WASH complex (WASHopathy) cause short stature, as well as distinctive facies and variable neurodevelopmental abnormalities.
