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

CAPN1-associated hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG76) is a rare and clinically heterogenous syndrome due to loss of calpain-1 function. Here we illustrate a translational approach to the case of an 18-year-old patient who first presented with psychiatric symptoms followed by spastic gait, intention tremor, and neurogenic bladder dysfunction, consistent with a complex form of HSP. Exome sequencing showed compound-heterozygous missense variants in CAPN1 (NM_001198868.2: c.1712A>G (p.Asn571Ser)/c.1991C>T (p.Ser664Leu)) and a previously reported heterozygous stop-gain variant in RCL1. In silico analyses of the CAPN1 variants predicted a deleterious effect and in vitro functional studies confirmed reduced calpain-1 activity and dysregulated downstream signaling. These findings support a diagnosis of SPG76 and highlight that the psychiatric symptoms can precede the motor symptoms in HSP. Our results also suggest that multiple genes can potentially contribute to complex neuropsychiatric diseases.
