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

Pompe disease is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by disease-associated variants in the acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) gene. The current Pompe mutation database provides a severity rating of GAA variants based on in silico predictions and expression studies. Here, we extended the database with clinical information of reported phenotypes. We added additional in silico predictions for effects on splicing and protein function and for cross reactive immunologic material (CRIM) status, minor allele frequencies, and molecular analyses. We analyzed 867 patients and 562 GAA variants. Based on their combination with a GAA null allele (i.e., complete deficiency of GAA enzyme activity), 49% of the 422 disease-associated variants could be linked to classic infantile, childhood, or adult phenotypes. Predictions and immunoblot analyses identified 131 CRIM negative and 216 CRIM positive variants. While disease-associated missense variants were found throughout the GAA protein, they were enriched up to seven-fold in the catalytic site. Fifteen percent of disease-associated missense variants were predicted to affect splicing. This should be confirmed using splicing assays. Inclusion of clinical severity rating in the Pompe mutation database provides an invaluable tool for diagnosis, prognosis of disease progression, treatment regimens, and the future development of personalized medicine for Pompe disease.
