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

objectiveTo analyze the correlation between genetic variants of PRF1 and expression level of perforin and granzyme B protein, and further determine the relationship between PRF1 gene variants and cytotoxic T lymphocyte/natural killer (CTL/NK) cell function in famililal hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL2).

methodsEight children of FHL2 (P1-P8) after treatment, as well as parents and siblings of P1-P5 were included, and thirty healthy children came for physical examination were designated as controls. PRF1, Unc13D, STX11, STXBP2, RAB27A, LYST, SH2D1A, BIRC4 exons were amplified by PCR and followed by direct sequencing. Bioinformatics analysis of mutant PRF1 was performed by ExPASy online system. Perforin and granzyme B expression on cytotoxic lymphocyte was detected by flow cytometry.

results① Three of eight FHL2 children harbored heterozygous missense of PRF1 exons: P1 had compound heterozygous missense mutations (R4C and R33H) and P2 had heterozygous mutations (V50L), P3 had heterozygous mutations (R489W), which confirmed the diagnosis of FHL2. The father (F1) and younger brother (B1) of P1 also had compound heterozygous missense mutation (R4C/R33H), the mother (M2) and younger brother (B2) of P2 had V50L mutation, the father (F3) of P3 had no R489W mutation and the mother of P3 did not participate in this research, so mutation of R4C/R33H of P1 inherited from paternal line, and V50L mutation of P2 came from maternal line, R489W mutation of P3 came from maternal line. ② Comparing to control group, perforin expression of CD8(+) T cells and natural killer (NK) cells of P1, F1, B1, P2, M2 and B2 decreased significantly, but there was no significant difference between two groups in terms of granzyme B expression.

conclusionsR4C/R33H compound heterozygous mutation and V50L heterozygous mutation all cause lower expression of perforin on CTL/NK cells, and may be causative mutations for familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
