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

aimTo identify mutations with whole exome sequencing (WES) in a Chinese X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP) family.

methodsPatients received the comprehensive ophthalmic evaluation. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and subjected to SureSelect Human All Exon 6+ UTR exon capture kit. The exons were sequenced as 100 base paired reads on Illumina HiSeq2500 system. Only mutations that resulted in a change in amino acid sequence were selected. A pattern of inheritance of the RP family was aligned to identified causal mutation.

resultsWe analysed the data of WES information from XLRP family. The analysis revealed a hemizygous large genomic deletion of RPGR c.29_113del was responsible for this XLRP. The gross deletion lead to a frame-shift mutation and generate stop codon at 7 animo acid behind Asp (D10Afs*7), which would serious truncate RPGR protein. The novel frame-shift mutation was found to segregate with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) phenotype in this family. Bilateral myopia was present on the male patients, but carrier female showed unilateral myopia without RP.

conclusionOur study identifies a novel frame-shift mutation of RPGR in a Chinese family, which would expand the spectrum of RPGR mutations. The geno-phenotypic analysis reveals a correlation between RP and myopia. Although exact mechanism of RP related myopia is still unknown, but the novel frame-shift mutation will give our hit on studying the molecular pathogenesis of RP and myopia.
