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

Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked monogenic disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene which leads to a deficiency of the functionally active lysosomal α-galactosidase A enzyme. Here, we report on a family of five members: unaffected parents, one unaffected son, and another son and daughter both carrying the same mutation (p.G138E) in the GLA gene. Genotype analysis using intragenic GLA markers confirmed the maternal origin of the mutation. The affected son and daughter carried the same mutation; however, it was not detected in the peripheral blood, buccal cells, and urinary sediment cells of their mother. Moreover, the unaffected son without the alteration in the GLA gene carried the same maternal chromosome X (disease-associated) haplotype. To the best of our knowledge, this study represents the first case of maternal germline mosaicism in FD.
