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

Usher syndrome is a severely debilitating autosomal recessive disorder characterised by congenital or progressive hearing loss, gradual vision loss and in some subtypes, vestibular dysfunction. Much progress has been made in recent years in creating appropriate preclinical models for most subtypes of Usher syndrome to facilitate the development of novel therapies. In this review, we provide an update on new preclinical models of Usher syndrome, with a particular focus on induced pluripotent stem cells and new organoid models. An update on the status of novel therapies is provided, including the development of new genetic therapies using new preclinical models and those currently in clinical trials.
