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

Identification of variants in the acid α-glucosidase (GAA) gene in Pompe disease provides valuable insights and systematic overviews are needed. We report on the number, nature, frequency, and geographic distribution of GAA sequence variants listed in the Pompe Registry, a long-term, observational program and the largest global repository of Pompe disease data. Variant information was reviewed and compared with publicly available GAA databases/resources. Among 1,079 eligible patients, 2,075 GAA variants (80 unique novel) were reported. Variants were listed by groups representing Pompe disease phenotypes. Patients were classified as Group A: Symptom onset ≤ 12 months of age with cardiomyopathy; Group B: Symptom onset ≤ 12 years of age (includes patients with symptom onset ≤ 12 months of age without cardiomyopathy); or Group C: Symptom onset > 12 years of age. Likely impact of novel variants was predicted using bioinformatics algorithms. Variants were classified by pathogenicity using ACMG guidelines. Data reported from the Pompe Registry provide new information about the distribution of GAA variants globally and across the clinical spectrum, add to the number and diversity of GAA variants registered in public databases through published data sharing, provide a first indication of the severity of novel variants, and assist in diagnostic practice and outcome prediction.
