Variable Clinical Appearance of the Kir2.1 Rare Variants in Russian Patients with Long QT Syndrome.
Article in Genes, 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
backgroundThe
methodsWe screened 210 probands with Long QT syndrome for mutations in the
resultsWe found three rare genetic variants, p.Arg67Trp, p.Val93Ile, and p.R218Q, in three unrelated LQTS probands. Probands with p.Arg67Trp and p.R218Q had a phenotype typical for Andersen-Tawil (ATS), and the p.Val93Ile carrier had lone QTc prolongation. Variant p.Val93Ile was initially described as a gain-of-function pathogenic mutation causing familial atrial fibrillation. We validated electrophysiological features of this variant in CHO-K1 cells, but no family members of these patients had atrial fibrillation. Using ACMG (2015) criteria, we re-assessed this variant as a variant of unknown significance (class III).
conclusionsLQT7 is a rare form of LQTS in Russia, and accounts for 1% of the LQTS cohort. Variant p.Val93Ile leads to a gain-of-function effect in the different cell lines, but its clinical appearance is not so consistent. The clinical significance of this variant might be overestimated.
