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

Functional disorders are common conditions with a substantial impact on a patients' wellbeing, and can be diagnostically elusive. There are bidirectional associations between functional disorders and mitochondrial dysfunction. In this study, provided clinical information and the exon sequence of the TRAP1 mitochondrial chaperone were retrospectively reviewed with a focus on the functional categories of chronic pain, fatigue and gastrointestinal dysmotility. Very-highly conserved TRAP1 variants were identified in 73 of 930 unrelated patients. Functional symptomatology is strongly associated with specific variants in the ATPase binding pocket. In particular, the combined presence of all three functional categories is strongly associated with p.Ile253Val (OR 7.5, P = 0.0001) and with two other interacting variants (OR 18, P = 0.0005). Considering a 1-2% combined variant prevalence and high odds ratios, these variants may be an important factor in the etiology of functional symptomatology.
