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

Ichthyosis follicularis, atrichia, and photophobia syndrome (IFAP syndrome) is a rare, X-linked disorder caused by pathogenic variants in membrane-bound transcription factor protease, site 2 (MBTPS2). Pathogenic MBTPS2 variants also cause BRESHECK syndrome, characterized by the IFAP triad plus intellectual disability and multiple congenital anomalies. Here we present a patient with ichthyosis, sparse hair, pulmonic stenosis, kidney dysplasia, hypospadias, growth failure, thrombocytopenia, anemia, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea found by research-based exome sequencing to harbor a novel, maternally inherited MBTPS2 missense variant (c.766 G>A; (p.Val256Leu)). In vitro modeling supports variant pathogenicity, with impaired cell growth in cholesterol-depleted media, attenuated activation of the sterol regulatory element-binding protein pathway, and failure to activate the endoplasmic reticulum stress response pathway. Our case expands both the genetic and phenotypic spectrum of BRESHECK syndrome to include a novel MBTPS2 variant and cytopenias, bone marrow fibrosis, and chronic diarrhea.
