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

Proteus syndrome is an uncommon, sporadic disorder characterized by progressive and heterogeneous overgrowth of tissues, resulting in distorted and asymmetric development. In most individuals, Proteus syndrome has minimal to no manifestations at birth but progresses during childhood and adolescence. Clinical manifestations of the disease include isolated asymmetric hemihyperplasia, isolated asymmetric macrodactyly, subcutaneous masses, plantar and palmar cerebriform fibrous overgrowth, exostoses, epidermal nevi, and scoliosis. Cardiothoracic structures are less commonly involved, and the manifestations include cystic lung changes, pulmonary thromboembolism and varicosities, and pulmonary nodules. Patients with Proteus syndrome have an increased risk of early death due to deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. We report a case of an adult female who was diagnosed with Proteus syndrome at the age of 5 years who had multiple pulmonary manifestations of the disease.
