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

The congenital disorder of glycosylation (CDG)-Ic (ALG6-CDG, CDG-Ic) is caused by mutations in the hALG6 gene that encodes the N-glycosylation pathway enzyme, α-1,3-glucosyltransferase (NP_037471.2). The aim of our study was to estimate the frequencies of ALG6-CDG related p.Y131H and p.F304S polymorphisms in the Croatian population. Genomic DNA was isolated from blood samples collected from 600 healthy individuals. Functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms rs35383149 and rs17856039 causing p.Y131H and p.F304S, respectively, were genotyped by the TaqMan method and direct sequencing. The frequency of p.F304S polymorphism in the studied cohort was shown to be similar to the frequencies found in other tested populations (27%), whereas the frequency of p.Y131H was found to be three times higher (6.7%). Five novel base substitutions in the hALG6 gene were also found: three in exon 5 (c.383T>C, c.390G>A, and c.429G>C) and two in a downstream intervening sequence (IVS5+17C/T and IVS5+34G/A).
