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: Germline pathogenic variants in the Additional Sex Combs-Like 1 ( Case presentation: A 71-year-old male proband exhibited congenital facial, extraocular, proximal upper limb and generalised/distal lower limb muscle weakness/wasting. This was associated with dysphagia, childhood motor developmental delay, bilateral upper limb tremor and bilateral pes cavus. He demonstrated some features of Bohring-Opitz syndrome including feeding difficulties, microcephaly, micrognathia and anteverted nares but lacked the characteristic posturing. Muscle imaging demonstrated symmetrical lower limb atrophy. His adult age diagnosis is unique among Conclusions: This expands the phenotype of
