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

Glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by excessive accumulation of abnormal glycogen in the liver and/or muscles and caused by deficiency in the glycogen debranching enzyme (AGL). Previous studies have revealed that the spectrum of AGL mutations in GSD III patients depends on ethnic grouping. We investigated nine GSD III patients from Germany, Canada, Afghanistan, Iran, and Turkey and identified six novel AGL mutations: one nonsense (W255X), three deletions (1019delA, 3202-3203delTA, and 1859-1869del11-bp), and two splicing mutations (IVS7 + 5G > A and IVS21 + 5insA), together with three previously reported ones (R864X, W1327X, and IVS21 + 1G > A). All mutations are predicted to lead to premature termination, which abolishes enzyme activity. Our molecular study on GSD III patients of different ethnic ancestry showed allelic heterogeneity of AGL mutations. This is the first AGL mutation report for German, Canadian, Afghan, Iranian and Turkish populations.
