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

The probe StB12.3 has been used to screen the FMR-1 gene in 42 pedigrees with a distal Xq fragile site for expansion of the CCG repeat and aberrant methylation of the FRAXA locus. Four families did not have a FRAXA mutation and were investigated further. Fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) and molecular analyses showed that three of these families had an expansion at FRAXE and one at FRAXE. Detailed psychiatric, psychological, and behavioural features of three families with FRAXE identified in the study are presented. All the males who expressed FRAXE had a large methylated CCG repeat at FRAXF. All males with the mutation had some degree of mental handicap. This study illustrates the need for the FRAXE phenotype to be defined further.
