A Nepalese family with an REEP2 mutation: clinical and genetic study.
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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are clinically and genetically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive weakness and spasticity in the lower limbs due to pyramidal tract dysfunction. REEP2 mutations have been identified as a cause of "pure" HSP, SPG72, with both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance. We describe a rare Nepalese family with early-onset pure-type HSP harboring a heterozygous REEP2 missense mutation (c.119T>G, p.Met40Arg). This is only the second SPG72 family with autosomal dominant inheritance. The proband presented slow and spastic gait at age 2 years and the symptoms progressed slowly. The proband's father and uncle presented even milder symptoms of pure spastic paraplegia. Our study may provide an opportunity to further study the genotype-phenotype correlation of SPG72.
