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.
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
objectivesOculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD) is a rare autosomal dominant congenital malformation syndrome characterized by high penetrance and great phenotypic heterogeneity. Neurological manifestations are thought to occur in about one third of cases, but systematic studies are not available. We performed deep neurological phenotyping of 10 patients in one ODDD pedigree.
methodsRetrospective case series. We analyzed in depth the neurological phenotype of a three-generation family segregating the heterozygous c.416 T > C, p.(Ile139Thr) in GJA1. Clinical and neuroradiological features were retrospectively evaluated. Brain MRI and visual evoked potentials were performed in 8 and 6 cases, respectively.
resultsCentral nervous system manifestations occurred in 5 patients, the most common being isolated ataxia either in isolation or combined with spasticity. Furthermore, sphincteric disturbances (neurogenic bladder and fecal incontinence) were recognized as the first manifestation in most of the patients. Subclinical electrophysiological alteration of the optic pathway occurred in all the examined patients. Neuroimaging was significant for supratentorial hypomyelination pattern and hyperintense superior cerebellar peduncle in all examined patients.
conclusionThe neurological involvement in ODDD carriers is often missed but peculiar clinical and radiological patterns can be recognized. Deep neurological phenotyping is needed to help untangle ODDD syndrome complexity and find genotype-phenotype correlations.
