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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to identify the genetic causes of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) within a family. Most of the previous studies found point mutations as the genetic causes for HCM, whole-gene deletion was rarely reported.

methodsAlthough, clinical genetic testing has been widely used for identifying variants in HCM patients, structural variations are understudied, partly owing to the inadequacy of the available methodology. In the present study, whole-exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing validation was used to identify the genetic causes in patients with familial HCM.

resultsA genomic deletion in Chromosome 19 containing the whole of troponin I3 gene (TNNI3), and the p.Ile736Thr variant in the myosin heavy chain 7 gene (MYH7) were identified in two patients with familial HCM by WES. The p.Ile736Thr variant is further validated by Sanger sequencing and is predicted as a pathogenic variant by in silico analysis.

conclusionWe added the notion that not only p.Ile736Thr variant of MYH7, but also TNNI3 deletion might potentially contribute to HCM pathogenesis. Our study also suggested WES was a powerful tool to identify the genetic variants causing HCM.
