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.

Abstract

Gaucher disease is a glycolytic storage disease caused by a deficiency in activity of the catabolic enzyme glucocerebrosidase. Over 35 different mutations have been documented, including missense and nonsense point mutations, splicing mutations, deletions and insertions, a fusion gene, and examples of gene conversion. Gaucher disease is most common in the Ashkenazi Jewish population, in which just five of the mutations in this population account for 98% of the disease-producing alleles. Each of these mutations is found in the context of a single haplotype, a finding consistent with a single origin of each mutation. Although it is clear that these mutations provide a selective advantage in the Jewish population and thus constitute a balanced polymorphism, the nature of the advantage is unknown. Gaucher disease can be treated symptomatically, by administration of the missing enzyme, by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, and potentially by gene transfer into hematopoietic stem cells. Increasing understanding of this disease has, as in other genetic disorders, created a host of social and ethical dilemmas regarding matters such as the cost of treatment for rare diseases and the advantages and disadvantages of population-targeted genetic screening.
