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

Molecular defects in the gene encoding the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) result in Hunter disease (mucopolysaccharidosis type II, MPS II). To determine the molecular basis of MPS II in Thailand, the IDS gene was analysed in 20 Thai patients with Hunter syndrome from 18 unrelated families. A total of 19 different mutations, including 9 missense mutations, 3 nonsense mutations, 3 splice site alterations, 1 deletion, 2 indels, and 1 rearrangement were identified, 8 of which were novel (p.R101C, p.D148V, p.G224A, p.K227E, p.E254X, p.W337X, c.440_442delinsTT and c.720_731delinsTTTCAGATGTTCTCCCCAG). Evaluation of the IDS activity of two hemizygous variants identified in the same patient, p.R101C and p.R468Q, by expression of IDS with the individual mutations in COS 7 cells indicated that only the p.R468Q mutation affected IDS protein activity. Two exonic mutations, c.257C>T (p.P86L) and c.418G>A, were found to activate multiple cryptic splice sites, resulting in aberrantly spliced transcripts. Thus, MPS II in Thailand is caused by a diverse set of defects affecting both IDS protein production and activity.
