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

backgroundCongenital coagulation factor X (FX) deficiency is a rare bleeding disorder with an incidence of one in one million caused by mutations in the FX-coding gene(F10), leading to abnormal coagulation activity and a tendency for severe hemorrhage. Therefore, identifying mutations in FX is important for diagnosing congenital FX deficiency.

resultsGenetic analysis of the proband identified two single-base substitutions: c.794T > C: p.Ile265Thr and c.865 + 5G > A: IVS7 + 5G > A. His FX activity and antigen levels were < 1% and 49.7%, respectively; aPTT and PT were prolonged to 65.3 and 80.5 s, respectively. Bioinformatics analysis predicted the two novel variants to be pathogenic. In-vitro expression study of the missense mutation c.794T > C: p.Ile265Thr showed normal synthesis and secretion. Activation of FXs by RVV, FVII/TF, and FVIII/FIX all showed no obvious difference between the variant and the reference. However, clotting activity by PT and aPTT assays and activity of thrombin generation in a TGA assay all indicated reduced activity of the mutant FX-Ile265Thr compared to FX-WT. Minigene assay showed a normal splicing mode c.865 + 5G > A: IVS7 + 5G > A, which is inconsistent with clinical phenotype.

conclusionsThe heterozygous variants c.794T > C: p.Ile265Thr or c.865 + 5G > A: IVS7 + 5G > A indicate mild FX deficiency, but the compound heterozygous mutation of the two causes severe congenital FX deficiency. Genetic analysis of these two mutations may help characterize the bleeding tendency and confirm congenital FX deficiency. In-vitro expression and functional study showed that the low activity of the mutant FX-Ile265Thr is caused by decrease in its enzyme activity rather than self-activation. The minigene assay help us explore possible mechanisms of the splicing mutation. However, more in-depth mechanism research is needed in the future.
