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

backgroundCongenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS), which is defined as heavy proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia and edema, is most caused by monogenic defects in structural proteins of the glomerular filtration barrier in the kidneys. 22q11.2 duplication syndrome was a chromosomal disease with variable clinical featuresranging from normal to mental retardation and with congenital defects. Co-occurrence of two genetic disorders in a single patient is rare. CASE PRESENTATION: The proband was born at 36 weeks of gestational age spontaneously and weighed 2350 g at birth. Six days after birth, the proband was admitted to our hospital due to fever of 38.5 °C lasting for 6 h. Physical examination at admission time showed dysmorphic features of hypertelorism, palpebral edema, broad nose bridge, upturned nose, dysmorphic auricle, long philtrum, and a thin upper lip. Additionally, we found left wrist drop and bilateral strephexopodia, bilateral knee joint flexion contracture in this patient. A series of indicators were detected and showed abnormalities. Albumin was used to remit the hypoproteinemia and edema. However, the parents refused to accept further therapy and the boy died at age 3 months due to cachexy. To confirm the pathogenesis, genetic analysis were performed and revealed two mutations of NPHS1 gene: Exon18: c.2386G > C; p. (Gly796Arg) inherited from mother, and intron24: c.3286 + 5G > A; p.? inherited from father. And he also had a 22q11.2 duplication which was inherited from his mild affected mother. The pathogenesis of the intronic mutation has been further identified that it can defect alternative splicing of NPHS1.

conclusionsWe present a patient who was caught in congenital nephrotic syndrome and 22q11.2 duplication syndrome simultaneously, emphasizing the importance of new sequencing technology on diagnosis of different genetic disorders.
