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

Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary nephropathy which is characterized by molecular abnormalities in collagen IV. Here, we report compound mutations of the COL4A3 gene including a novel allele identified in a patient with Alport syndrome. The patient was a 25-year-old Chinese woman. She has a history of proteinuria and hematuria with cleft lip and palate. The pathologic results were consistent with Alport syndrome. The patient received ACEI treatment but did not respond well to the treatment. Sequencing results revealed that the patient carried two heterozygous mutations in the COL4A3 gene, including a known mutation (c.4243G>C, p.G1415R), which was inherited from her father, and a previously undescribed allele (c.4216G>A, p.G1406R) inherited from her mother. To date, at least 294 different variants of COL4A3 have been reported according to the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD). Identification of c.4216G>A as a new AS-related mutation may contribute to both genetic diagnosis of AS and further functional study of COL4A3.
