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

Macroglossia is a clinically significant feature of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), but the cellular basis of tongue overgrowth remains poorly defined. Using pediatric tongue specimens from molecularly defined BWS subtypes and age-matched nonBWS controls, we show that BWS macroglossia is characterized by skeletal muscle fiber hypertrophy rather than increased fiber number. This phenotype is not explained by expansion or increased proliferation of satellite cells
