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

Congenital prothrombin deficiency is an extremely rare, autosomal recessive bleeding disorder with a prevalence of 1 in 2 million individuals. Here, we report a case of congenital prothrombin deficiency with two concurrent mutations in the prothrombin gene (F2), affecting the heavy B chain. The patient presented with a history of multiple bleeding events in his youth that are mostly trauma associated, with a family history of prothrombin deficiency. Laboratory analysis showed a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time and a prothrombin activity level of 5%. Genetic analysis of the F2 gene identified two heterozygous variants; one is a previously reported pathogenic deletion (c.1814_1815del; p.His605Argfs*13), and the other is a novel missense variant (c.1147C>T; p.Arg383Trp). In silico analysis predicted that p.Arg383Trp is likely to be disease causing, as it affects one of the anion-binding exosites-I of the B chain. This case highlights the significance of molecular findings in confirming the diagnosis of patients with congenital prothrombin deficiency.
