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

Congenital limb malformations rank behind only congenital heart disease as the most common birth defects observed in infants. Finding genes that cause defects in human limb patterning should be straightforward but has been limited, in part, by the bewildering spectrum of phenotypes, which are difficult to separate into etiologically distinct disorders. One approach to the identification of relevant genes is to take advantage of unique extended kindreds in which a defect in limb patterning is segregating. Recently, a large Dutch family with ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, cleft palate, and urogenital defects (EEC) was described by Maas et al. We have studied this kindred and localized a gene causing EEC to a locus on chromosome 19, in a region defined by D19S894 and D19S416. A second extended kindred with EEC does not map to this locus, indicating that EEC is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. Growth and patterning of the limbs, teeth, hair, and genitourinary system are mediated in part by epithelial-mesenchyme inductive interactions. The identification of both the gene causing EEC and its mutation may further elucidate the general signals mediating inductive mechanisms.
