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 ventriculoseptal defect (VSD) is the most common form of congenital heart disease and a leading noninfectious cause of infant mortality. Growing evidence demonstrates that genetic defects are associated with congenital VSD. Nevertheless, VSD is genetically heterogeneous, and the molecular basis for VSD in an overwhelming majority of patients remains unknown. In this study, the whole coding region of GATA5, a gene encoding a zinc finger transcription factor crucial for normal cardiogenesis, was sequenced in 120 unrelated patients with VSD. The available relatives of the patient harboring the identified mutation and 200 unrelated individuals used as controls were subsequently genotyped. The causative potential of a sequence variation was evaluated by MutationTaster, and the functional effect of the mutation was characterized using a luciferase reporter assay system. As a result, a novel heterozygous GATA5 mutation, p.L199V, was identified in a patient with VSD, which was absent in 400 control chromosomes. Genetic analysis of the mutation carrier's available family members showed that the substitution co-segregated with VSD transmitted in an autosomal dominant pattern. The p.L199V variation was automatically predicted to be disease causing, and the functional analysis showed that the GATA5 p.L199V mutant protein was associated with significantly reduced transcriptional activation compared with its wild-type counterpart. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report on the link of functionally compromised GATA5 to human VSD, suggesting potential implications for the early prophylaxis and personalized treatment of VSD.
