A novel double deletion underscores the importance of characterizing end points of the CFTR large rearrangements.

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.
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
Large genomic rearrangements in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) account for up to 16-24% of CF alleles negative for point mutations in European populations. Herein, we identified a new large rearrangement removing exon 19 in a young CF patient, who hitherto harbored only the F508del mutation. By using LightCycler technology, we successfully and rapidly delineated the deletion end points by determining the relative copy number of a set CFTR sequence from introns 18 to 19. Fine mapping of the sequences bordering its break points was achieved using direct sequencing. We reported the first complex CFTR rearrangement containing two successive deletion events putatively linked. We evidenced the presence of short direct repeats in the vicinity of the deletions suggesting a possible replication slippage model. In this report, we also discussed the putative molecular mechanism and consequences of this complex gene rearrangement, unprecedented in CF. This complex deletion illustrates the importance of delineating the genomic rearrangement to improve our knowledge of the CFTR mutational spectrum and to better understand the molecular mechanism controlling the CFTR expression.
