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

backgroundA substantial fraction of hereditary hearing loss (HL) remains unexplained by known HL genes. Tbx2 is a developmental transcription factor critical for inner ear hair cell differentiation in mice, while its pathogenic role in genetic HL in humans has yet to be documented. Here, we identified heterozygous

methodsLinkage analysis combined with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was applied to identify the causative gene in two unrelated Chinese families with autosomal dominant progressive sensorineural HL (SNHL) accompanied by incomplete penetrance nystagmus. Functional evaluation of

resultsLinkage analysis in Family 1 mapped SNHL to chr17q23.2 (maximum logarithm of odds=3.01), WGS identified two rare heterozygous
