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

X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (RS) is a recessively inherited disorder resulting in poor visual acuity. Affected males typically show retinal degeneration and intraretinal splitting. The prevalence of RS is 1:15,000-1:30,000. Elsewhere we have mapped the RS gene between the markers DXS43 and DXS274 in Xp22.1-p22.2. To narrow the RS region, we analyzed 31 Finnish RS families with the markers DXS418, DXS999, DXS7161, and DXS365 and a new polymorphic microsatellite marker, HYAT1. Multipoint linkage analysis allowed us to localize the RS gene between the markers DXS418 and DXS7161 (LOD score = 31.3). We have covered this region with nine YAC clones. On the basis of the sizes of the YACs, sequence-tagged site (STS) content mapping, and restriction mapping, the physical distance between DXS418 and DXS7161 is approximately 0.9 Mb. A total of five potential CpG islands could be identified. For haplotype analysis, eight additional Finnish RS families were analyzed with the markers DXS1195, DXS418, HYAT1, DXS999, DXS7161, and DXS365. On the basis of the linkage-disequilibrium data that were derived from the genetically isolated Finnish population, the critical region for RS could be narrowed to 0.2-0.3 cM, between the markers DXS418 and HYAT1.
