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

aimsWe aim to identify the molecular defects in the ATP7B, the causal gene for Wilson disease (WD), in eastern Indian patients and attempt to assess the overall mutation spectrum in India for detection of mutant allele for diagnostic purposes.

methodsPatients from 109 unrelated families and their first-degree relatives comprising 400 individuals were enrolled in this study as part of an ongoing project. Genomic DNA was prepared from the peripheral blood of Indian WD patients. PCR was done to amplify the exons and flanking regions of the WD gene followed by sequencing, to identify the nucleotide variants.

resultsIn addition to previous reports, we recently identified eight mutations including three novel (c.3412 + 1G > A, c.1771 G > A, c.3091 A > G) variants, and identified patients with variable phenotype despite similar mutation background suggesting potential role of modifier locus.

conclusionsSo far we have identified 17 mutations in eastern India including five common mutations that account for 44% of patients. Comparative study on WD mutations between different regions of India suggests high genetic heterogeneity and the absence of a single or a limited number of common founder mutations. Genotype-phenotype correlation revealed that no particular phenotype could be assigned to a particular mutation and even same set of mutations in different patients showed different phenotypes.
