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

backgroundCongenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG) are genetic diseases caused by hypoglycosylation of glycoproteins and glycolipids. Most CDG are multisystem disorders with mild to severe involvement.

methodsWe studied 554 patients (2007-2017) with a clinical phenotype compatible with a CDG. Screening was performed by serum transferrin isoelectric focusing. The diagnosis was confirmed by genetic testing (Sanger or exome sequencing).

resultsA confirmed abnormal pattern was found in nine patients. Seven patients showed a type 1 pattern: four with PMM2-CDG, two with ALG2-CDG, and one with classical galactosemia. A type 2 pattern was found in two patients: one with a CDG-IIx and one with a transferrin protein variant. Abnormal transferrin pattern were observed in a patient with a myopathy due to a COL6A2 gene variant.

conclusionsCDG screening in Argentina from 2007 to 2017 revealed 4 PMM2-CDG patients, 2 ALG2-CDG patients with a novel homozygous gene variant and 1 CDG-IIx.
