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

Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited disorder and clinically characterized by glomerulonephritis and end-stage kidney disease (ESRD). The aim of this study was to identify the gene responsible for glomerulopathy in a 4-generation Chinese pedigree. Exome sequencing was conducted in four patients of the family, and then direct sequencing was performed in other members of the pedigree. A novel missense mutation c.368G>A (p.Gly123Glu) in the collagen type IV alpha-5 gene (COL4A5) was found to be the genetic cause. The p.Gly123Glu mutation occurs prior to Gly-X-Y repeats in the alpha-5 chain of type IV collagen. Neither sensorineural hearing loss nor ocular abnormalities were present in patients of this family. Other clinical features, such as age of onset, age of ESRD, disease severity and complications, varied among patients of this family. Our finding may provide new insights into the cause and diagnosis of AS, and also have implications for genetic counseling.
