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

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) occur in up to 27% of patients with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and are associated with a rate of paradoxical cerebral embolism at presentation of up to 36%. At least two different loci have been shown for HHT. Mutations in endoglin have been found in some families and the locus designated ORW1. In other families this locus has been excluded. In this paper we confirm that in families linked to ORW1 there is a prevalence of PAVMs among affected members of 29.2%, compared to a prevalence of 2.9% in families in which this locus has been excluded (chi 2 = 19.2, p < 0.001). This information can be used to decide how to screen HHT patients for PAVMs.
