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

Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK), or bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma, is characterized by generalized erythroderma, ichthyosiform skin and blistering, and is caused by an aberration of the keratin intermediate filaments. In this study, we examined keratin K10 and 1 gene mutations in a Japanese EHK patient who had severe ichthyosiform erythroderma at birth and developed subsequent blistering. The patient had a G to A transition at codon 156 of the keratin K10 gene, which resulted in an arginine (Arg)-->histidine (His) substitution in the helix initiation peptide of the highly-conserved 1A domain in keratin K10. This is the first mutation report of a Japanese patient with EHK, although the position and mode of the mutation identified here did not differ from those in reported Western cases.
