Genetic features of retinitis pigmentosa in Turkey.

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.
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
Sixty-two cases with retinitis pigmentosa from 42 index families were investigated to reveal the genetic features of the disease in Turkey. There were 42 propositi of whom 5 had a systemic syndrome associated with retinitis pigmentosa. Of the remaining 37 cases the condition was autosomal recessive in 21 (56.8%), sporadic in 12 (32.4%), autosomal dominant in 3 (8.1%) and X-linked recessive in one (2.7%). Sporadic cases may be more frequent as many hereditary cases are not brought to medical attention in rural families. Male preponderance among sporadic cases may indicate that there may be more X-linked cases. Nine out of 21 cases initially classified as sporadic displayed parental consanguinity and they were included as having autosomal recessive trait. Large families with autosomal recessive inheritance may prove valuable in linkage analysis and in defining future gene abnormalities.
