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

We describe a founder mutation in the gene encoding ganglioside-induced differentiation associated-protein 1 (GDAP1), leading to amino acid change p.H123R, as a common cause of autosomal dominant axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT2) neuropathy in Finland. The mutation explains up to 14 % of CMT2 in Finland, where most patients with axonal neuropathy have remained without molecular diagnosis. Only three families out of 28 were found to carry putative disease mutations in the MFN2 gene encoding mitofusin 2. In addition, the MFN2 variant p.V705I was commonly found in our patients, but we provide evidence that this previously described mutation is a common polymorphism and not pathogenic. GDAP1-associated polyneuropathy caused predominantly a mild and slowly progressive phenotype. Besides distal leg muscle weakness, most patients showed mild proximal weakness, often with asymmetry and pes cavus. Our findings broaden the understanding of GDAP1 mutations in CMT2 phenotypes and provide support for the use of whole-exome sequencing in CMT gene diagnostics.
