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

Generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa is an autosomal recessive subepidermal blistering disease typified by null mutations in COL17A1. In 1 large kindred, affected individuals were homozygous for a 2-bp deletion in COL17A1, 4003delTC, which resulted in a downstream premature termination codon, nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and abrogation of type XVII collagen synthesis. Interestingly, 1 of these patients, although phenotypically identical to her affected siblings, showed focal expression of type XVII collagen in epidermal basement membrane in a pattern suggestive of revertant mosaicism. When studies of randomly obtained epidermal, oromucosal, and peripheral blood cells failed to identify the genetic basis of this apparent mosaicism, microscopic subpopulations of potentially revertant epidermal cells (i.e., those overlying basement membrane containing type XVII collagen) were selectively isolated using laser capture microdissection. Analysis of DNA and RNA from these cells revealed a second mutation, 4080insGG, on 1 allele of COL17A1. This 2-bp insertion corrected the reading frame just proximal to the premature termination codon, countered nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and allowed protein production by patient keratinocytes in vivo and in vitro. These studies elucidate the molecular basis of a novel form of revertant mosaicism in humans.
