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

A male patient carrying an interstitial deletion in Xp22.3 and affected by Kallmann syndrome, X-linked ichthyosis and mental retardation, but without chondrodysplasia punctata or short stature, was investigated with molecular probes from the distal Xp22.3 region. By means of a novel probe, M115, from the relevant region, the distal deletion breakpoint was shown to be between 3.18 and 3.57 Mb from Xptel. As the patient is not affected by X-linked recessive chondrodysplasia punctata, the gene for this disease can therefore be located to within an interval of less than one megabase proximal to the pseudoautosomal boundary. If the chondrodysplasia punctata gene is associated with a CpG island, this leaves only two islands at 2760 and 3180 kb from the Xp telomere as the most promising candidate sites for this gene.
