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

Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) comprise a heterogeneous group of inherited neurological disorders characterized by a range of symptoms from both cerebellar and extra cerebellar structures. We investigated the cause of autosomal recessive, congenital SCA in six affected family members from a large consanguineous family. Using whole-exome sequencing, we identified a homozygous ITPR1 missense variant [c.5360T>C; p.(L1787P)] segregating in all affected individuals. Heterozygous carriers were asymptomatic despite cerebellar hypoplasia. Variants in the ITPTR1 gene have previously been associated exclusively with autosomal dominant SCA15 and SCA29 with slow or no progression. The L1787 residue is highly conserved and the leucine to proline substitution has a predicted destabilizing effect on the protein structure. Additionally, the L1787P variant is located in a domain separated from previously described and dominant-acting missense variants consistent with a distinct effect on IP3R1 tetramer structure and function. Taken together, we show for the first time that a biallelic ITPR1 missense variant may cause an autosomal recessive and infantile onset SCA29, albeit with subclinical cerebellar hypoplasia in carriers. Our findings add to the genetic complexity of SCA29 and broaden the correlations between ITPR1 variants and their clinical expression.
