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

Mutations in the SH3TC2 gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4C (CMT4C), characterized by inherited demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. CMT4C is a common form of CMT4/autosomal recessive (AR) CMT1. This study examined the SH3TC2 variants, investigated genotype-phenotype correlations and explored the frequency of CMT4C in Chinese patients. A total of 206 unrelated patients of Chinese Han descent clinically diagnosed with CMT were recruited. All patients underwent detailed history-taking, neurological examination, laboratory workups, and electrophysiological studies. Genetic analysis was performed via high-throughput target sequencing (NGS). Three patients, one male and two females, were found to carry five SH3TC2 mutations: patient 1 (c.3154C > T, p.R1054X; c.929G > A, p.G310E); Patient 2 (c.2872_2872del, p.S958fs; c.3710C > T, p.A1237V) and Patient 3 (c.2782C > T, p.Q928X; c.929G > A, p.G310E). The c.2872_2872del, c.3710C > T and c.2782C > T variants were not reported before. CMT4C caused by SH3TC2 mutation is a very common type of CMT4/AR CMT1. Three novel mutations, c.2872_2872del, c.3710C > T and c.2782C > T, were found in this study. Combination of clinical phenotype, nerve conduction studies, genetic analysis and bioinformatics analysis are of vital importance in patients suspected as CMT.
