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

aimsPRRT2 variants are associated with various paroxysmal disorders. To date, more than 90 PRRT2 variants have been reported in PRRT2-related disorders. Lack of functional study in majority of missense variants makes their pathogenicity uncertain. We aim to evaluate the clinical significance of PRRT2 missense variants by performing in vitro experiments.

methodsWe systematically reviewed PRRT2-related disorders and summarized reported PRRT2 missense variants. Protein expression and subcellular localization of mutant PRRT2 were investigated in mammal cells. American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines were used to analyze the pathogenicity of PRRT2 missense variants.

resultsA total of 29 PRRT2 missense variants were identified in PRRT2-related disorders. Ten variants were observed to affect both subcellular localization and protein level, three variants only affect membrane localization, and two variants only affect protein level. According to ACMG guidelines, 15 variants were finally classified as "likely pathogenic", three as "benign", three as "likely benign", and eight as "uncertain significance" variants. The likely pathogenic variants were concentrated in the C-terminal of PRRT2.

conclusionsThe pathogenicity of eight uncertain significance variants needs further investigation. C-terminal of PRRT2 is crucial for its physiological function.
