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

Deficiency or diminished activity of a cobalamin dependent enzyme methylmalonyl-CoA mutase causes inborn error of metabolism called methylmalonic acidemia (MMA). In this study we elucidated the spectrum of mutations in 21 Indian mut MMA patients by direct sequencing. Sequence analysis identified a total of 70 mutations in exon 2, 9, 11 and 12 of MUT gene. Out of which 26 mutations were predicted to be deleterious and rest were benign. The 23 novel mutations consist of four nonsense mutations (p.N6*, p.G539*, p.E609* and p.I671*), twelve missense mutations (p.K128I, p.N547T, p.D554Y, p.A558T, p.R559P, p.A631T, p.I647T, p.E656D, p.V657E, p.Q660H, p.K679N, and p.G696Y) and seven frame shift mutations (c.375_376insA, c.1642delA, c.1655delC, c.1825_1826insT, c.1957delGA, c.2014delA and c.2062_2063insGA). All of them are point mutations or micro rearrangements. Three of these mutations (p.K621N, p.G648D, p.G630E) have been previously reported; all of them are missense mutations. The mutations are distributed throughout the exon 2, 9, 11 and 12, 38.4 % mutation are located in exon 12.
