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

Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) is a diffuse, autosomal recessive, and non-epidermolytic palmoplantar keratosis caused by mutations in the SERPINB7 gene, a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily. Genetic studies and case reports suggest that NPPK is the most common palmoplantar keratosis in East Asia but rare in Western countries. This study reports eight NPPK patients in seven pedigrees of the Chinese Han ethnicity with two novel (c.530T>C and c.643A>G) and two recurrent mutations (c.796C>T and c.455G>T) in SERPINB7. The diagnosis of NPPK is now well-defined because of the typical manifestations and pathogenic gene tests. However, its pathomechanism is still obscure, and treatment remains a challenge. This study reviewed all 15 pathogenic mutations and related data in the 1000 Genomes Project to elucidate the founder effect of SERPINB7. Also, several latest cases of NPPK in areas outside East Asia are presented, including France, Finland, and Thailand. Further clinical investigation and genetic studies are crucial for identifying the pathomechanism of NPPK. Also, large-scale control studies are required to determine the safety and curative effects of available therapies.
