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

Mutations in NPHS1, which encodes nephrin, are the main causes of congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) in Finnish patients, whereas mutations in NPHS2, which encodes podocin, are typically responsible for childhood-onset steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome in European populations. Genotype-phenotype correlations are not well understood in non-Finnish patients. We evaluated the clinical presentation, kidney histology, and disease progression in non-Finnish CNS cases by mutational screening in 107 families (117 cases) by sequencing the entire coding regions of NPHS1, NPHS2, PLCE1, WT1, LAMB2, PDSS2, COQ2, and NEPH1. We found that CNS describes a heterogeneous group of disorders in non-Finnish populations. We identified nephrin and podocin mutations in most families and only rarely found mutations in genes implicated in other hereditary forms of NS. In approximately 20% of cases, we could not identify the underlying genetic cause. Consistent with the major role of nephrin at the slit diaphragm, NPHS1 mutations associated with an earlier onset of disease and worse renal outcomes than NPHS2 mutations. Milder cases resulting from mutant NPHS1 had either two mutations in the cytoplasmic tail or two missense mutations in the extracellular domain, including at least one that preserved structure and function. In addition, we extend the spectrum of known NPHS1 mutations by describing long NPHS1 deletions. In summary, these data demonstrate that CNS is not a distinct clinical entity in non-Finnish populations but rather a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders.
