A family study describing second cousins with cystic fibrosis and no common ancestor who is a carrier.
Article in Journal of medical genetics, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We describe an extended pedigree in which second cousins are affected with cystic fibrosis (CF). Since the degree of relationship of the affected subjects is 1/32, common descent of one CF mutation was expected when the DNA laboratory undertook mutation analysis. Mutation testing showed that each CF mutation was introduced into the family by random mating and not by descent through a common ancestor. Implications for pedigree analysis and DNA testing are discussed.
