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

introductionX-Linked agammaglobulinemia is a prototypical humoral immunodeficiency with the mutation of the Bruton's tyrosine kinase gene.

methodsWe investigated the gene mutation and clinical features of 30 Chinese X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) patients from 27 families. There were 26 mutations, including 11 novel and 15 recurrent mutations, distributing over the entire gene. The nucleotide and amino acid aberration, 1129C>T(H333Y) and 1196T>A(I355N), in SH2 have not been reported before. Five (I355N, W124R, R520X, I590F, G594E) of the 24 mutations not detected in the mothers receiving gene analysis were determined to be de novo. Two mutations occurred within intronic splice-site sequences (intron5(-2)A>G, intron17(-2)A>T). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: There are eight mutations in the PH domain, two mutations in the SH3 domain, three mutations in the SH2 domain, one mutation in the TH domain, and other 16 mutations in the TK domain. The mutations of protein domain is most common in TK (53%) domain and then in PH(8%) domain. Missense and nonsense mutations were found equal in 46% of the detected mutations. All of the patients are alive, but one died of liver cancer. Clinical features and serum Igs levels range variedly and were not correlated with genotypes. Our results demonstrated molecular genetic characteristics of XLA in mainland China.
