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

Propionic acidemia is an inborn error of organic acid metabolism caused by a deficiency of propionyl Coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase. cDNAs sequenced from a beta subunit deficient Japanese patient (no. 187) showed an in-frame 57-bp deletion in one allele. Genomic DNA analysis revealed a four-nucleotide deletion of bases 3 to 6 in the 3' intron adjacent to the deleted exon, which disrupted the consensus 5' splice signal and caused exon skipping. This deletion removed one-half of a tetranucleotide direct repeat at the splice junction and presumably resulted from slipped mispairing.
