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

Escobar syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by contractures, pterygia and craniofacial anomalies. Here we report a school-age girl harboring compound-heterozygous CHRNG variants, NM_005199.5:c.[2T>C];[428C>G] p.[(Met1?)];[(Pro143Arg)]. She presented with neonatal asphyxia, congenital limb contractures and low-frequency hearing loss but without pterygia, maintaining normal cognition. This case underscores the phenotypic variability of CHRNG-related disease and alerts clinicians to recognize milder presentations that lack pterygia and to consider targeted genetic testin.
