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

backgroundFamilial form of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare hereditary disease caused by arginine vasopressin type 2 receptor (AVPR2) or water channel aquaporin 2 (AQP2) gene mutations. It is speculated that 90% of NDI families carry disease-causing mutations in AVPR2 and 10% carry the mutations in AQP2; however, these percentages have not been supported by actual data. It is also unknown whether these percentages vary in different ethnic groups.

methodsGene mutation analyses were performed for 78 Japanese NDI families. All exons and intron-exon boundaries of the AVPR2 and AQP2 genes were directly sequenced.

resultsA total of 62 families (79%) carried disease-causing mutations in AVPR2, while nine families (12%) carried mutations in AQP2. We identified 22 novel putatively disease-causing mutations (19 in AVPR2 and 3 in AQP2). Regarding AVPR2, 52 disease-causing mutations were identified. Among them, missense mutations were most common (54%), followed by deletion mutations. In the 64 women who had monoallelic disease-causing AVPR2 mutations, 16 (25%) had NDI symptoms, including 4 complete NDI subjects. Regarding AQP2, 9 disease-causing mutations were identified in nine families. Two missense mutations and one deletion mutation showed a recessive inheritance, while one missense mutation and five small deletion mutations in the C-terminus of AQP2 showed a dominant inheritance.

conclusionsMost Japanese NDI families carry disease-causing mutations in AVPR2 and 12% carry mutations in AQP2. A total of 22 novel putatively disease-causing mutations were identified. The relatively high occurrence of symptomatic carriers of AVPR2 mutations needs attention.
