Novel compound heterozygous variants of tyrosinase gene in an isolated foveal hypoplasia patient without nystagmus.
Article in Journal of human genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Foveal hypoplasia is the major cause of visual loss. Here we report an isolated foveal hypoplasia patient without nystagmus. It is very rare, and its etiology is not completely understood. Using whole-exome sequencing and foveal hypoplasia-related gene filtering from a family with two generations, we identified a novel variant c.859T>C (p.S287P) and a rare non-frameshift variant c.229_230insGGG (p.Arg77_Glu78insGly) in the tyrosinase (TYR) gene that co-segregated in the affected member of this family. The compound heterozygous variants inherited in the proband were confirmed by Sanger sequencing and predicted from in silico studies to have an effect on protein function. In conclusion, our finding extends the spectrum of TYR variants and supports the important role of TYR in the development of eyes.
