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

Nail Patella syndrome (NPS) is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by varying degrees of patella, nail, and elbows dysplasia and also ocular and renal congenital abnormalities. The renal involvement, ranging from hematuria and proteinuria to end-stage renal disease, is present in 22-60% of NPS cases. Heterozygous variants in LMX1B are known to be responsible of NPS and it has been hypothesized that the variable expressivity is due to the interaction of LMX1B with other developmental genes. We reported a case of co-presence of LMX1B and PAX2 variants in a child with extrarenal manifestation of NPS and end-stage renal disease but congenital bilateral renal hypodysplasia and vesicoureteral reflux. The LMX1B variant was de novo, whereas the PAX2 variant was inherited from the mother that had bilateral renal hypoplasia although in presence of only a mild chronic kidney disease. The molecular interaction between LMX1B and PAX2 has been already reported in vitro and this finding suggest that the worst renal NPS phenotype of our patient could be due to the defective expression of these two genes during nephrogenesis. In conclusion, our finding suggests that PAX2 may act as modifier gene in Nail Patella phenotype.
