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

purposeKartagener syndrome (KS), also known as visceral inversion-nasosinusitis-bronchiectasis syndrome, or familial bronchiectasis, is an autosomal recessive inherited disease. In this study, through two cases of KS, we aimed to assess the clinical and genetic characteristics of KS caused by DNAH5 mutations.

methodsThe two cases of KS from the same family underwent extensive clinical assessments, with next-generation DNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to identify pathogenic genes. In addition, Sanger sequencing was used to verify the pedigrees.

resultsThe present study employed a directional capture strategy for hereditary disease screening, which correctly identified the virulence sites in the pedigree, and facilitated the differential diagnosis among multiple genes. Two novel mutations were detected in DNAH5: c.7778C>T (missense mutation) and c.13729G>A (nonsense mutation). They were not found in dbSNP, 1000 Genomes, and ExAC.

conclusionsThese findings demonstrated that new DNAH5 mutations could be used for molecular diagnosis of KS, providing families with genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.
