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

backgroundGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzymopathy. The human G6PD gene is highly polymorphic, and over 200 mutations have been identified, many of which are associated with hemolytic anemia. Here, we analyzed the clinical genetics data of a Chinese girl with favism who developed acute hemolytic anemia after fava bean ingestion.

methodsThe clinical genetics data of the proband who developed acute hemolytic anemia were collected and analyzed, and G6PD gene exons were sequenced in the proband and her family.

resultsWe reported for the first time a novel G6PD gene variant in a Chinese girl, which we named "G6PD Wuhan." This variant is localized exon 3 of the G6PD gene at genomic position 141G > C, that is a change from p.Lys47 to Asn. The bioinformatics analysis and protein modeling study indicated this variant may have negative effects on the enzyme activity of G6PD.

conclusionsOur results indicated that favism in the proband was caused by this novel heterozygous variant (c.141G > C) in G6PD. The variant in G6PD has implications for genetic counseling and could provide insights into the functional roles of G6PD mutations.
