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

Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenation deficiency (MADD) is an autosomal recessive disease affecting amino acid, fatty acid, and choline metabolisms and is a common genetic defect responsible for lipid storage myopathy. Most forms of MADD are caused by a deficiency of electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) or ETF dehydrogenase (ETFDH). However, its molecular feature has not been found uniformly in previous reports of Chinese patients. A large cohort of 56 late-onset MADD patients from 51 unrelated pedigrees in southern China was recruited to investigate a clear correlation between clinical phenotype and molecular genetic basis. All exons of ETFA, ETFB, and ETFDH, including the intron-exon boundaries, and 5' and 3' untranslated regions were directly sequenced. ETFDH deficiencies affected 94.1% (48/51) of the pedigrees. ETFDH-c.250G>A is the most common mutation, representing a high allelic frequency of 83.3% (80/96). Carrier frequency of c.250G>A is estimated to be 1.35% (7/520) in the normal population. A significant reduced expression of ETFDH was identified in the muscle of ETFDH-deficient patients. ETFDH deficiency is a major cause of riboflavin-responsive MADD in southern China, and c.250G>A is an important mutation that could be employed as a fast and reliable screening method.
