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

backgroundPropionic acidemia is a severe inherited metabolic disorder, caused by the deficiency of propionyl-CoA carboxylase which encoded by the PCCA and PCCB genes. The aim of the study was to investigate the clinical features and outcomes, molecular epidemiology and phenotype-genotype relationship in Chinese population.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of 60 Chinese patients diagnosed at Peking University First Hospital from 2007 to 2020. Their clinical and laboratory data were reviewed. The next-generation sequencing was conducted on blood samples from 58 patients.

resultsOnly 5 (8.3%) patients were identified by newborn screening. In the rest 55 patients, 25 had early-onset (≤ 3 months) disease and 30 had late-onset (> 3 months) disease. Neurological abnormalities were the most frequent complications. Five cases detected by newborn screening had basically normal development. Nine (15%) cases died in our cohort. 24 patients (41.4%) harbored PCCA variants, and 34 (58.6%) harbored PCCB variants. 30 (11 reported and 19 novel) variants in PCCA and 28 (18 reported and 10 novel) variants in PCCB mere identified. c.2002G>A and c.937C>T in PCCA, and c.838dupC in PCCB were the most common variants in this cohort, with the frequency of 13.9% (6/44 alleles), 13.9% (6/44 alleles) and 12.5% (8/64 alleles), respectively. There was no difference in clinical features and outcomes between patients with PCCA and PCCB variants. Certain variants with high frequencies and homozygotes may be associated with early-onset or late-onset propionic acidemia.

conclusionsAlthough the genotype-phenotype correlation is still unclear, certain variants seemed to be related to early-onset or late-onset propionic acidemia. Our study further delineated the complex clinical manifestations of propionic acidemia and expanded the spectrum of gene variants associated with propionic acidemia.
