Novel MSH2 splice-site mutation in a young patient with Lynch syndrome.
Article in Molecular medicine reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Lynch Syndrome (LS) is associated with germline mutations in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes, including MutL homolog 1 (MLH1), MutS homolog 2 (MSH2), MSH6, PMS1 homolog 2, mismatch repair system component (PMS2), MLH3 and MSH3. The mutations identified in MMR genes are point mutations or large rearrangements. The point mutations are certainly pathogenetic whether they determine formation of truncated protein. The mutations that arise in splice sites are classified as 'likely pathogenic' variants. In the present study, a novel splicing mutation was identified, (named c.212‑1g>a), in the MSH2 gene. This novel mutation in the consensus splice site of MSH2 exon 2 leads to the loss of the canonical splice site, without skipping in‑frame of exon 2; also with the formation of 2 aberrant transcripts, due to the activation of novel splice sites in exon 2. This mutation was identified in a young patient who developed colon cancer at the age of 26 years and their belongs to family that met the 'Revised Amsterdam Criteria'. The present study provided insight into the molecular mechanism determining the pathogenicity of this novel MSH2 mutation and it reaffirms the importance of genetic testing in LS.
