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

backgroundPseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is a rare disorder characterized by hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and resistance to parathyroid hormone (PTH). According to different GNAS mutations, PHP is divided into several subtypes, among which autosomal-dominant PHP1B (AD-PHP1B) is caused by STX16 deletion and epigenetic alteration of GNAS. Although the deletion of STX16 exons 2-6 is commonly observed, other mutations involving STX16 can also result in AD-PHP1B. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe clinical information of a 38-year-old male PHP patient was collected. The genomic DNA from peripheral blood cells was extracted for genetic analysis of GNAS and upstream STX16 by methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) and whole-exome sequencing (WES). Sanger sequencing was performed to verify the break point of the novel long-range deletion.

resultsThe patient's medical history of tetany and seizure as well as laboratory examination showing hypocalcemia and elevated PTH levels indicated the diagnosis of PHP. The results of MS-MLPA showed loss of methylation of GNAS A/B:TSS-DMR and half-reduced copy number of STX16 exon 1-9, which revealed the subtype of AD-PHP1B. Furthermore, the WES study displayed a 87.5 kb missing upstream of GNAS. A 87.5 kb deletion spanning STX16 and NPEPL1 together with an insertion of 28 bp of unknown origin was verified by PCR along with Sanger sequencing.

conclusionsA novel deletion of 87.5 kb spanning STX16 and NPEPL1 was discovered in an AD-PHP1B patient, which provides new information on molecular defects leading to AD-PHP1B.
