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

Despite the overrepresentation of Kv7.1 mutations among patients with a robust diagnosis of long QT syndrome (LQTS), a background rate of innocuous Kv7.1 missense variants observed in healthy controls creates ambiguity in the interpretation of LQTS genetic test results. A recent study showed that the probability of pathogenicity for rare missense mutations depends in part on the topological location of the variant in Kv7.1's various structure-function domains. Since the Kv7.1's C-terminus accounts for nearly 50 % of the overall protein and nearly 50 % of the overall background rate of rare variants falls within the C-terminus, further enhancement in mutation calling may provide guidance in distinguishing pathogenic long QT syndrome type 1 (LQT1)-causing mutations from rare non-disease-causing variants in the Kv7.1's C-terminus. Therefore, we have used conservation analysis and a large case-control study to generate topology-based estimative predictive values to aid in interpretation, identifying three regions of high conservation within the Kv7.1's C-terminus which have a high probability of LQT1 pathogenicity.
