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

Progranulin (GRN) mutations are a major cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD); the spectrum of clinical phenotypes of FTD is much more extensive than previously reported. The frequency and locations of GRN mutations in Chinese patients with FTD remain uncertain. We performed cDNA sequencing in one sporadic male patient who initially presented FTD symptoms. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission computed tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) were applied to further confirm the diagnosis of FTD from this patient. Cellular apoptosis and survival test were performed to identify the function of GRN. We identified one novel missense GRN mutation (c.1498G>A, p.V500I) in this patient, who initially presented typical behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) features but then presented progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) clinical characteristics 5 years after onset. Besides, WT GRN protein showed an adequate trophic stimulus to preserve the survival of SH-SY5Y cells in the medium free of serum, while GRN mutation (c.1498G>A, p.V500I) may impair the ability of supporting cell survival. This study owns significant implications for genetic counseling and clinical heterogeneity. We illustrate the fact that FTD presenting features of bvFTD and PSP in one patient could be considered as a specific phenotype in patients with GRN mutations. GRN p.V500I led to the neuronal degeneration
