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

Pathogenic mutation of protein C (PROC) gene results into the deficiency of PROC activity. This study aimed to identify the pathogenic genetic variants and to explore the functional consequence in Chinese familial venous thrombosis (VTE). Whole exome sequencing was performed to identify the pathogenic variants of anticoagulant factors. Serum coagulation and anti-coagulation factors activity were assayed to evaluate the genetic association. Functional study of PROC antigen secretion deficiency was conducted in VTE subjects and in vitro cell lines. One rare pathogenic variant (p.Ala178Pro) was identified in the four VTE subjects but not in the normal subjects from the family. An inframeshift variant (rs199469469) was also identified in a paediatric subject of the pedigree. Further evaluation of serum PROC activity levels in p.Ala178Pro variants VTE carriers showed significantly lower PROC activity compared to non-carriers. Furthermore, in vitro study showed that the p.Ala178Pro mutant cells had a consistent reduction in concentration of PROC antigen. In conclusions, our study demonstrated the pathogenic variant (p.Ala178Pro) contributed to PROC type I activity deficiency, which may be due to decreased secretion of PROC.
