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

Background: MIRAGE syndrome is a severe congenital disease affecting multiple systems, caused by functional variants in the Case presentation: This article reports a sporadic case of neonatal MIRAGE syndrome confirmed by genetic diagnosis. The patient had a 46, XY karyotype and presented predominantly with female external genitalia, along with preterm birth, respiratory distress, growth restriction, recurrent infections, skin pigmentation, feeding difficulties, thrombocytopenia, anemia, and other manifestations. Conclusion: In clinical practice, when encountering newborns with unexplained premature birth, growth restriction, thrombocytopenia, recurrent infections, and a karyotype of 46, XY but with female or ambiguous external genitalia, clinicians can, based on the experience from this case, differentiate from MIRAGE syndrome and may further perform genetic testing to clarify the etiology.
