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 cataract is one of the leading causes of blindness in children worldwide. About one-third of congenital cataracts are caused by genetic defects. LSS, which encodes lanosterol synthase, is a causal gene for congenital cataracts. LSS is critical in preventing abnormal protein aggregation of various cataract-causing mutant crystallins; however, its roles in lens development remain largely unknown. In our study, we generated a mouse model harboring Lss G589S mutation, which is homologous to cataract-causing G588S mutation in human LSS. Lss
