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

backgroundMutations of the ABO gene may cause the dysfunction of ABO glycosyltransferase (GT) that can result in weak ABO phenotypes. Here, we identified two novel weak ABO subgroup alleles and explored their mechanisms that caused A MATERIALS AND

methodsThe ABO phenotyping and genotyping were performed by serological studies and direct DNA sequencing of the ABO gene. The role of the novel mutations were evaluated by a three-dimensional model, predicting protein structure changes, and in vitro expression assay. The total glycosyltransferase transfer capacity in supernatant of transfected cells was examined.

resultsWe identified a mutation c. 955C>G (p. L319V) of A allele in an A

conclusionsTwo novel "el"-type ABO subgroup alleles were identified. Both of the two novel mutations can change the local conformation of GTs and reduce protein stability. GTA mutation p. L319V can impair the conversion from H to A antigen and causes the A
