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

Mutations in the different domains of A-type lamin proteins cause a diverse plethora of diseases collectively termed as laminopathies which can affect multiple organs. Ig fold is one such domain of lamin A which is implicated in numerous nuclear interactions wherein the mutations lead to different laminopathies. W514R is one such mutation in the Ig fold which leads to severe phenotypes in Skeletal Muscle Dystrophy (SMD) which is a class of laminopathies. In this report, we elucidated gross alterations in structure and dynamics at the level of individual amino acids. These studies indicate altered conformational features of residues in the close vicinity of W514. Imaging of mammalian cells transfected with the mutant have shown distinct perturbation of the nuclear meshwork with concomitant alteration in nuclear interactions as a result of increased oligomerization of Ig W514R. Hence, this novel approach of amalgamating theoretical and experimental procedures to predict the severity of a mutant in the context of laminopathies could be extended for numerous lamin A mutants.
