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

backgroundWT1 is one of the genes commonly reported as mutated in children with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). We analyzed genotype-phenotype correlations in pediatric SRNS patients with WT1 mutations.

methodsFrom 2001 to 2015, WT1 mutations were detected in 21 out of 354 children with SRNS by genetic screening (5.9 %). The patients were grouped into missense (n = 11) and KTS splicing (n = 10) mutation groups.

resultsNine (82 %) patients with missense mutations presented with congenital/infantile nephrotic syndrome, while 8 (80 %) with KTS splicing mutations presented with childhood-onset SRNS. Progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) was noted in all patients with missense mutations (median age, 2.6 months; interquartile range [IQR], 0.8 months to 1.7 years) and in 5 patients with KTS splicing mutations (median, 9.3 years; IQR, 3.3-16.5 years). Disorders of sexual development (DSDs) were noted in all 12 patients with a 46, XY karyotype and in only 1 of the 8 patients with a 46, XX karyotype. One patient developed a Wilms tumor and another developed gonadoblastoma. Three patients had a diaphragmatic defect or hernia.

conclusionsWT1 mutations manifest as a wide spectrum of renal and extra-renal phenotypes. Genetic diagnosis is essential for overall management and to predict the genotype-specific risk of DSDs and the development of malignancies.
