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

Wolfram syndrome (WS) is a rare, progressive, neurodegenerative disorder that has an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. The gene for WS, wolfram syndrome 1 gene (WFS1), is located on human chromosome 4p16.1 and encodes a transmembrane protein. To date, approximately 230 mutations in WFS1 have been confirmed, in which nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) are the most common forms of genetic variation. Nonetheless, there is poor knowledge on the relationship between SNP genotype and phenotype in other nsSNPs of the WFS1 gene. Here, we analysed 395 nsSNPs associated with the WFS1 gene using different computational methods and identified 20 nsSNPs to be potentially pathogenic. Furthermore, to identify the amino acid distributions and significances of pathogenic nsSNPs in the protein of WFS1, its transmembrane domain was constructed by the TMHMM server, which suggested that mutations outside of the TMhelix could have more effects on protein function. The predicted pathogenic mutations for the nsSNPs of the WFS1 gene provide an excellent guide for screening pathogenic mutations.
