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

backgroundTo dissect the genetic causes underlying diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) within a family.

methodsWhole-exome sequencing of the proband was performed and DOR and Sanger sequencing was carried out to validate presence of the variant in the proband and her mother. In silico algorithms were used to analyze the mutational effect of the variant. PSIPRED (PSI-blast based secondary structure PREDiction) was used for predicting mutated protein secondary structures.

resultsUsing whole-exome sequencing, we found that the proband carries the mutation c.2525A > C;p.Q842P in EIF4ENIF, a POI-related gene. Through Sanger sequencing, we found that the proband's mother also carries the same mutation. Online bioinformatics analysis suggests that the mutation is a pathogenic mutation. Secondary structural biology prediction analysis indicates that the mutation either causes the destruction of the α-helical structure around the mutation site or reduces the α-helix.

conclusionsThis mutation is the second novel mutation of EIF4ENIF1 that has been identified in POI patients. This study thus provides a theoretical basis for POI genetics and POI clinical genetic counseling.
