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

backgroundFabry disease (FD), a rare X-linked α-galactosidase A (GLA) deficiency, resulting in progressive lysosomal accumulation of globotriaosylceramide in a variety of cell types. More and more disease-causing mutations in GLA have been identified in FD due to the advancement of molecular diagnostic tools. We found a novel mutation in a Chinese family with predominant Fabry's disease nephropathy.

methodsAll coding regions and exon-intron splice junctions of the GLA gene were sequenced to find sequence variations. We evaluated the impact on the GLA protein by analysis of the GLA mRNA, by sequential analysis and homology modeling, and by site-directed mutagenesis and in vitro expression studies.

resultsWe identified a novel heterozygous missense mutation c.280T>C in our patient with variable phenotypic presentations of renal involvement. The novel GLA variant results in low expression of GLA mRNAs, impaired or loss of the disulfate bridge structure of wild-type GLA, reduced GLA activity and defected nuclear shape in the GFP-GLA-MT transfected HEK293T cells.

conclusionA novel GLA missense mutation, c.280T>C (Cys94Arg), was found in a Chinese family with predominant renal manifestations of FD. Our study reveals the pathogenesis of c.280T>C mutation to FD and provides scientific foundation for accurate diagnosis and precise medical intervention for FD.
