A novel mutation in NPHS2 causing nephrotic syndrome in a Saudi Arabian family.
Article in NDT plus, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 report a consanguineous family from Saudi Arabia with three affected children presenting with infantile nephrotic syndrome. In order to provide a molecular diagnosis, a genome-wide SNP analysis of the affected patients was performed. We identified a region of homozygosity on chromosome 1, containing the NPHS2 gene. Direct sequencing, by exon PCR, of NPHS2 identified a homozygous nucleotide change 385C > T within exon 3 in the three affected children, leading to a premature stop codon (Q129X). This homozygous truncating mutation in NPHS2 is novel and was associated with a severe clinical phenotype. Additional mutations in related genes NPHS1, PLCE1 and NEPH1 were not identified, excluding tri-allelism within these genes in this family.
