Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C: Clinical and electrophysiological findings for the c.334G>a (p.Gly112Ser) Litaf/Simple mutation.
Article in Muscle & nerve, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
introductionCharcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C (CMT1C) is a rare, dominantly inherited neuropathy caused by mutations in the lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor (LITAF) or small integral membrane protein of the lysosome/late endosome (SIMPLE) gene.
methodsWe present a case series comprised of 10 patients in whom CMT1C is caused by a Gly112Ser substitution in the encoded protein. We focus on clinical presentation, electrodiagnostic analyses, and our findings in the context of previously described cases.
resultsThe Gly112Ser mutation causing CMT1C is a mild form of CMT, as patients walked on time, had less weakness than those with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A), had a CMT neuropathy score (CMTNS) indicative of mild disease, and had faster ulnar and median motor nerve conduction velocities compared to those with CMT1A. DISCUSSION: The G112S mutation in LITAF seems to be clinically indistinguishable from a mild presentation of CMT1A. Muscle Nerve 56: 1092-1095, 2017.
