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

Tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (ALP), encoded by ALPL, is important for bone homeostasis and interacts with collagen type I. In the present study, we sequenced ALPL and a panel of collagen type I-related genes in 24 adults (age 22-80 years; 20 female) with persistently low serum ALP (< 40 U/L) and a range of rheumatologic symptoms. We found heterozygous pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in ALPL in 14 (58%) of these individuals. In addition, 7 study participants had potentially damaging heterozygous variants of uncertain significance in genes related to collagen type I. Patients who were positive for ALPL variants had similar age and serum ALP levels to patients in whom no ALPL variants were detected, but had higher serum pyridoxal-5-phosphate concentrations (median 214 nmol/L vs. 64 nmol/L; p = 0.02; U test). In summary, heterozygous ALPL variants are frequent in individuals with rheumatologic symptoms and low ALP serum activity. It is possible that variants in genes that are involved in collagen type I production have a modifying effect on the clinical consequences of such ALPL variants.
