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

DNA based and biochemical diagnosis of MPS II was performed on 13 unrelated families using Southern blotting. The 35S-sulphate accumulation in cultured fibroblasts was investigated and the iduronate-2-sulphatase (IDS) activity in the serum determined. Sixteen patients and 36 females at risk were screened for structural aberrations and by RFLP analysis using the intragenic probe pc2S15 and probes VK23B, VK21A, and II-10 for the flanking loci DXS297, DXS296, and DXS466. Structural alterations were found in the DNA of two patients. One of them showed a major deletion including the whole coding sequence of the IDS gene. An aberrant Southern fragment occurred in the HindIII/pc2S15 blot of the other patient suggesting a new HindIII restriction site by point mutation in an IDS gene intron. Twenty-nine females were confirmed as carriers, and for five women the heterozygous state could be excluded. Prenatal diagnosis can be offered to 27 women if requested.
