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

aimHyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis (HFTC) is a rare endocrine disorder caused by autosomal recessive variants in GALNT3, FGF23, and KL leading to progressive calcification of soft tissues and subsequent clinical effects. The aim of this was to study the cause of HFTC in an Iranian family. PATIENTS AND

methodsFour generations of a family with HFTC were studied for understanding the genetic pattern of the disease. Whole exome sequencing was applied on genomic DNA of the proband. Based on its result, genetically altered sequences were checked in his family through sanger sequencing. Then bioinformatics approaches as well as co-segregation analysis were applied to validate the genetic alteration.

resultsA novel homozygous variant in exon four of GALNT3, namely p.R261Q was found. The parents and sister were carriers.

conclusionTo our knowledge, it is the first-reported Iranian family with GALNT3-CDG novel variant.
