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

It has been hypothesized that the pathogenesis of idiopathic talipes equinovarus (ITEV, or clubfoot) is explained by genetic regulation of development and growth. The objective of the present study was to determine whether a single Mendelian gene explains the probability of having ITEV in a sample of 143 Caucasian pedigrees from Iowa. These pedigrees were ascertained through probands with ITEV. Complex segregation analyses were undertaken using a regressive logistic model. The results of these analyses strongly rejected the hypotheses that the probability of having ITEV in these pedigrees was explained by a non-Mendelian pattern of transmission with residual sibling correlation, a nontransmitted (environmental) factor with residual sibling correlation, or residual sibling correlation alone. These results were consistent with the hypothesis that the probability of having ITEV was explained by the Mendelian segregation of a single gene with two alleles plus the effects of some unmeasured factor(s) shared among siblings. The segregation of alleles at this single Mendelian gene indicated that the disease allele A was incompletely dominant to the nondisease allele B. The disease allele A, associated with ITEV affection, was estimated to occur in the population of inference with a frequency of .007. After adjusting for sex-specific population incidences of ITEV, the conditional probability (penetrance) of ITEV affection given the AA, AB, and BB genotypes was computed to be 1.0, .039, and .0006, respectively. Individual pedigrees in this sample that most strongly supported the single Mendelian gene hypothesis were identified. These pedigrees are candidates for genetic linkage analyses or DNA association studies.
