Microcornea, iris and choroidal coloboma, and global developmental delay caused by TENM3 pathogenic variants in a Chinese patient.
Article in Molecular genetics & genomic medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundBiallelic TENM3 pathogenic variants cause isolated or syndromic microphthalmia. Syndromic microphthalmia 15 (MCOPS15) is characterized by microphthalmia, coloboma, and developmental delay. Currently, only four cases of MCOPS15 have been reported and the clinical features varied among the patients indicating potential broad phenotypic spectrum.
methodsThe present case was a 6-month-old male at diagnosis. The patient exhibited long philtrum, large ears, bilateral ptosis, and nystagmus. Ophthalmic tests showed that he had microcornea, iris and choroidal coloboma. The patient presented with global developmental delay (GDD). Trio-whole exome sequencing and genome copy number sequencing were conducted to explore the disease-causing mutations.
resultsExome sequencing and genome copy number sequencing showed the presence of L1471F and E661G compound mutations in TENM3, which were inherited from the mother and father, respectively. Sanger sequencing was conducted to verify association of the mutations with the disease in the present family.
conclusionTwo TENM3 variants were identified in a patient with Syndromic microphthalmia 15 in the present study. However, further studies should be conducted to explore the pathogenicity of the variants.
