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

We studied mutations of the ankyrin-1 (ANK-1) gene of genomic DNA from Japanese patients with hereditary spherocytosis (HS). Forty-nine patients from 46 unrelated families were included in this study. Of these patients, 19 cases from 16 unrelated families had HS of autosomal-dominant inheritance, and 30 patients had non-autosomal-dominant HS. Fifteen mutations of the ANK-1 gene pathognomonic for HS were identified: 4 nonsense mutations, 7 frameshift mutations, and 4 abnormal splicing mutations. These 15 mutations have not been previously reported. The frameshift mutations were found from exon 1 to exon 26, corresponding particularly to the band 3-binding domain of ankyrin. The nonsense mutations, on the contrary, were present mostly at the 3'-terminal side, especially in the spectrin-binding domain and the regulatory domain. The patients with ankyrin gene mutations tended to be more anemic with a higher level of reticulocytosis than those without these mutations. Fifteen silent mutations of the ANK-1 gene, most of which have previously been detected in HS patients in Western populations, were also found. The allele frequency of these silent mutations in the HS patients was nearly identical to that in normal subjects. There was no difference between the Japanese and Western populations in the allele frequency of these gene polymorphisms in healthy subjects or HS patients.
