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

Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is characterised by reticulate skin pigmentation, mucosal leucoplakia, and nail dystrophy. Bone marrow failure occurs in 50% of patients and is the principal cause of early mortality. In the majority of families the pattern of inheritance of DC is compatible with an X linked recessive trait. The locus for the X linked recessive form of DC has been linked to Xq28. We have now extended our earlier studies by investigating five families with additional Xq28 polymorphic markers; analysis of recombination events in these families has located the DC1 locus between GABRA3 and DXS1108, an interval of approximately 4 Mb.
