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

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder also known as a "brittle bone disease." Around 90% of patients with OI harbor loss-of-function or dominant negative pathogenic variants in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes, which code for collagen type I α1 and α2 chains. Collagen-related forms of the disorder are classified as Sillence OI types I-IV. OI phenotype expression ranges from mild to lethal. The current study aims to evaluate associations between interfamilial and intrafamilial phenotypic variability and genotype characteristics of patients with collagen-related OI. The study was based on a systematic review of collagen-related OI cases from the University of Tartu OI database (n = 137 individuals from 81 families) and the Dalgleish database (n = 479 individuals). Interfamilial variability analysis has shown that 17.74% of all studied OI-related variants were associated with the same phenotype. The remaining 82.26% of pathogenic variants were associated with variable phenotypes. Additionally, higher interfamilial variability correlated with the COL1A1 gene (P value = 0.001) and dominant-negative variants (P value = 0.0007). Within intrafamilial variability, 32.81% families had increasing or decreasing OI phenotype severity across generations. Higher intrafamilial variability of phenotypes correlated with the collagen I dominant negative variants (P value = 0.0246). The current study shows that, in line with other phenotype modification factors, OI interfamilial and intrafamilial diversity potential is associated with the genotype characteristics of the OI-causing pathogenic variants. The results of the current study may advance knowledge of OI phenotype modification as well as assist family planning and the evaluation of disease progression in subsequent generations.
