A novel frameshift pathogenic variant in ST3GAL5 causing salt and pepper developmental regression syndrome (SPDRS): A case report.
Article in Human genome variation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 papers.
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
GM3 synthase deficiency is associated with salt and pepper developmental regression syndrome (SPDRS), a rare genetic disorder. Herein, we report the first Iranian patient with SPDRS. We detected a novel pathogenic variant of ST3GAL5 (NM_003896.4: c.1030_1031del, p.Ile344Cysfs*11). The proband had intellectual disability (ID), failure to thrive, cerebral atrophy, microcephaly, and atonic seizures. The main future challenge proceeding from the results of this study is the prenatal detection of the newly discovered variant; the next step would involve further studies to elucidate the phenotypic spectrum of SPDRS and detect new variants that could cause symptoms ranging from mild to severe.
