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

Several genetic variants have been associated with early repolarization syndrome (ERS). However, the lack of functional validations of the mutant effects has limited the interpretation of genetic tests. In the present study, we identified and characterized a novel sodium channel, voltage gated, type V alpha subunit (SCN5A) mutation that was associated with ERS. A 67-year-old male proband suffering from recurrent syncope underwent a documented electrocardiogram (ECG) for polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). It was noted that baseline 12-lead ECG exhibited a predominantly elevated ST-segment which mimicked acute myocardial ischemia in lead V2-V6, and the ECG also demonstrated J waves in lead Ⅱ, Ⅲ, aVF and V2-V6. Using genetic analysis, we noted that the proband carried a novel heterozygous missense mutation of A1055G in the SCN5A gene. Whole-cell configuration of patch-clamp analysis revealed that the mutation significantly decreased peak sodium current (INa) density and shifted the steady-state inactivation curve of INa to a more negative potential. Confocal imaging suggested that in the mutant channel a defect of protein expression both on the cell membrane and in cytoplasm was present. The present study demonstrated that a novel heterozygous missense mutation of A1055G in SCN5A led to 'loss-of function' of the sodium channels, and we suggest that it accounts for the arrhythmogenic characteristics of ERS.
