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

Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal recessive storage disorder that result as a consequence of a deficiency in the lysosomal hydrolase, a-L-iduronidase enzyme encoded by IDUA gene. Over a hundred causative variants in IDUA have been identified, which result in a progressive multi-systemic disease with a broad range of severity and disease progression reported across affected individuals. The aim of this study was the detection and interpretation of IDUA mutation in a family with two children affected with lethal MPS I. The IDUA gene was sequenced in the parents of two deceased children who had a clinical diagnosis of MPS I, to assess their carrier status and to help inform on risk in future children. The sequencing analysis was performed by PCR and bidirectional Sanger sequencing of the coding region and exon-intron splice junctions at Labor MVZ Westmecklenburg molecular diagnostics laboratory. A heterozygous c.657delA variant in exon 6 was identified in each parent, which is the most likely explanation for disease in their children. This report represents the first Yemeni family to have a molecular diagnosis for MPS I.
