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 lissencephaly and subcortical band heterotopia (XLIS/SBH) is a disorder of cortical development, which causes classical lissencephaly with severe mental retardation and epilepsy in hemizygous males and SBH associated with milder mental retardation and epilepsy in heterozygous females. Here we report the fine mapping of a breakpoint involved in a de novo X;autosomal balanced translocation (46,XX,t(X;2) (q22.3;p25.1)) previously described in a female with classical lissencephaly. We constructed a complete 490 kb BAC contig around the Xq22.3 breakpoint with 11 novel STSs and isolated three BAC clones spanning the breakpoint. This mapping information and BAC contig will be useful in the detailed characterisation of the XLIS gene and other contiguous genes which may also be involved in brain development or function.
