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

Autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis (ARWH/H) is a hereditary hair disorder characterized by sparse, short, and curly hair. Mutations in the Lipase H (LIPH) gene, LPAR6, or other genes cause this hereditary hair condition. We report a case of an 11-month-old Saudi boy who presented to our dermatology clinic at King Fahad University Hospital in Al-Khobar (Saudi Arabia) with short, non-growing hair since birth. DNA sequencing revealed a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene at c.280_369dup. Our patient was diagnosed with ARWH/H resulting from a homozygous mutation in LIPH.
