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

Achondroplasia, the most common cause of chondrodysplasia in man, is characterized by short-limbed dwarfism, macrocephaly, and dysplasia of metaphyses of the tubular bones. Recently, mutations in the gene encoding fibroblast growth factor receptor-3 (FGFR-3) have been found in patients with achondroplasia. All mutations so far reported had occurred at codon 380, resulting in the substitution of an arginine for a glycine in the transmembrane domain of the predicted protein. We have examined the transmembrane domain of the FGFR-3 gene in seven Japanese patients with achondroplasia. Of the six cases that were sporadic, all carried a mutation in codon 380; the single familial case bore a novel mutation of a G-to-T transition at codon 375, which resulted in substitution of a cysteine for a glycine.
