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

backgroundThe mutation of TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) gene has been regarded as a causative gene of frontotemporal dementia (FTD)-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) spectrum disease in recent years. So far, more than 70 TBK1 variants have been identified in patients with FTD-ALS spectrum.

methodsWe reported a Chinese FTD patient carrying TBK1 p.Ile334Thr variant detected by target sequencing and Sanger sequencing. The patient's clinical materials were collected. The transcription and translation levels of TBK1 mutant were investigated in fibroblast by qPCR and western blot. The effects of TBK1 mutant in inflammation pathway and autophagy were detected by luciferase reporter assay and GST pull-down assay.

resultsThe patient was diagnosed as behavioral variant FTD (bvFTD) and displayed progressively severe cognitive impairment especially in executive function. A pattern of frontotemporal atrophy and hypometabolism was shown through MRI and PET-CT. In vitro functional experiments of TBK1 p.Ile334Thr variant demonstrated reduced transcription and translation levels, decreased kinase activity but maintenance of interaction with optineurin. The variant was classified as likely pathogenic according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guideline.

conclusionWe proposed the TBK1 mutation p.Ile334Thr as a likely pathogenic variant in bvFTD which also expanded the clinical spectrum of this variant. It can partially abrogate TBK1 functions and be responsible for FTD-ALS spectrum diseases through neuroinflammatory pathway.
