A novel variant of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase gene identified in an adult with newly diagnosed hepatitis C.
Article in JIMD reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hepatic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency commonly presents with acute crises during infancy when glycogen stores are depleted. In these patients, dependence on glycogenolysis means that the duration of normoglycaemia is related to liver glycogen stores. Clinical hallmarks of FBPase deficiency include hypoglycaemia and lactic acidosis with or without ketosis. Patients commonly present with hyperventilation, vomiting, tachycardia, reduced consciousness and glucagon-resistant hypoglycaemia. Between crises, patients are usually well with normal growth and development; however significant ingestion of fructose, sucrose or glycerol during acute crises may be fatal, hence the importance of a prompt diagnosis. We present the case of a 30-year-old male who presented to our tertiary centre acutely unwell, shortly following a diagnosis of hepatitis C, which we speculate may have precipitated this severe presentation. He had similar, milder episodes throughout childhood. Furthermore, a pathological homozygous sequence variant in fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (
