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

objectiveThyroid dyshormonogenesis (DH) is a genetically heterogeneous inherited disorder caused by thyroid hormone synthesis abnormalities. This study aims at comprehensively characterizing the mutation spectrum in Chinese patients with DH. SUBJECTS AND

methodsWe utilized next-generation sequencing to screen for mutations in seven DH-associated genes (TPO, DUOX2, TG, DUOXA2, SLC26A4, SLC5A5, and IYD) in 21 Chinese Han patients with DH from Xinjiang Province.

resultsTwenty-eight rare nonpolymorphic variants were found in 19 patients (90.5%), including 19, 5, 3, and 1 variants in DUOX2, TG, DUOXA2, and SLC26A4, respectively. Thirteen (62%) patients carried monogenic mutations, and six (28.5%) carried oligogenic mutations. Fifteen (71%) patients carried 2 or more DUOX2 (14) or DUOXA2 (1) variants. The genetic basis of DH in nine (43%) patients harboring biallelic or triallelic pathogenic variants was resolved. Seventeen patients (81%) carried DUOX2 mutations, most commonly p.R1110Q or p.K530X. No correlations were found between DUOX2 mutation types or numbers and clinical phenotypes.

conclusionsDUOX2 mutations were the most predominant genetic alterations of DH in the study cohort. Oligogenicity may explain the genetic basis of disease in many DH patients. Functional studies and further clinical studies with larger DH patient cohorts are needed to validate the roles of the mutations identified in this study.
