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

Glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit 3 deficiency, also known as Dursun syndrome, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe congenital neutropenia and variable multisystem malformations, particularly affecting the cardiovascular system. Most reported cases have been identified postnatally, following infectious or hematologic complications. Prenatal identification remains exceptionally rare. We describe the case of a fetus from consanguineous parents with a history of multiple neonatal deaths. Serial prenatal imaging demonstrated progressive fetal growth restriction, cardiomegaly with biventricular hypertrophy, significant tricuspid regurgitation, right-sided cardiac dominance, right atrial enlargement, ventriculomegaly, and evolving craniofacial dysmorphism. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a homozygous nonsense variant in
