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

Neutropenia has been recognized as a common feature of Cohen Syndrome, but its role as an early manifestation has not been fully elucidated. In this report, we present three patients diagnosed with Cohen Syndrome who were referred for neutropenia. All patients exhibited consistent clinical features of Cohen Syndrome, with neutropenia being the indication for genetic research. Neutropenia was the most prominent finding in all patients, and in one case, it was the earliest finding with other specific features. Additionally, we identified two novel variants, c.6107del (p.Asp2036Valfs*3) and c.5703del (p.Arg1901SerfsTer10) in the VPS13B gene, further contributing to the genetic understanding of this syndrome. Our findings emphasize the importance of early recognition of neutropenia as a key clinical sign in the diagnosis of Cohen Syndrome. Furthermore, these novel variants expand the genetic spectrum of the disorder and highlight the need for continued genetic investigation in rare syndromes.
