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

purposeThis study reports the ophthalmic and genetic findings of a Japanese patient with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (arRP) caused by retinitis pigmentosa 1 (RP1) mutations. PATIENT AND

methodsThe 34-year-old female patient and her unaffected parents underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examinations, including visual acuity measurements, perimetry, electroretinography (ERG), and optical coherence tomography. Fundus autofluorescence was also evaluated in the patient. To identify potential pathogenic variants, 111 inherited eye disease genes were examined by targeted next-generation sequencing.

resultsThe patient had night blindness from the first decade of her life. Fundus examination revealed typical RP findings with additional macular degeneration. Her visual field and acuity were severely affected, and ERG scans showed undetectable responses. Bioinformatics analysis revealed two heterozygous potentially pathogenic variants in RP1 in the patient, one of which is novel. Co-segregation analysis in the unaffected parents confirmed that the two variants were in trans. The parents were both carriers of one RP1 variant but did not show any visual symptoms. Therefore, the identified compound heterozygous variants were proposed as the probable arRP-causing mutations in the family.

conclusionThis is the first description of a Japanese patient with arRP caused by RP1 mutations. Additional data are necessary to more accurately determine the clinical course and mutation spectrum in patients with RP1-related arRP.
