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

Cloning of the gene defective in the X-linked neurodegenerative disorder Menkes disease led to a cascade of new findings. Besides giving a better understanding of the intracellular copper homeostasis, these findings had important consequences from a clinical point of view. Today the underlying genetic defect has been described in several patients affected by one of the three hereditary disorders of copper metabolism: Menkes disease, occipital horn syndrome and wilson disease. In this review we discuss mainly Menkes disease and the impact of the recent findings on the diagnosis of this disorder.
