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

MSX1 variants are associated with autosomal dominant craniofacial developmental anomalies, including congenital tooth agenesis. Here, whole-exome sequencing in a Japanese patient with congenital tooth agenesis identified a novel de novo heterozygous frameshift variant in MSX1 (NM_002448.3:c.299delC). The variant is predicted to generate a truncated protein, p.(Pro100Argfs*60), that lacks the C-terminal region of MSX1 and is expected to result in loss of function. The patient presented with congenital tooth agenesis, including canine agenesis. Taken together with the genetic findings, this case supports the involvement of MSX1 in congenital tooth agenesis and broadens the reported phenotypic presentation of MSX1-related tooth agenesis. This report adds to the spectrum of disease-associated MSX1 variants and supports the utility of genomic testing for molecular diagnosis in rare dental developmental anomalies.
