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

introductionCerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a relatively common cerebral small vessel disease. NOTCH3 has been identified as the causative gene of CADASIL. Clinical variability and genetic heterogeneity were observed in CADASIL patients and need to be further clarified.

aimsThe aim of the study was to clarify genetic spectrum of NOTCH3 and clinical phenotype of CADASIL patients.

methodsSuspected CADASIL patients were collected by our center between 2016 and 2021. Whole exome sequencing was performed to screen NOTCH3 mutations of these patients. Genetic and clinical data of CADASIL patients from previous studies were also analyzed. Studies between 1998 and 2021 that reported more than 9 pedigrees with detailed genetic data or clinical data were included. After excluding patients carrying cysteine-sparing mutations, genetic data of 855 Asian pedigrees (433 Chinese; 226 Japanese, and 196 Korean) and 546 Caucasian pedigrees, in a total of 1401 CADASIL pedigrees were involved in mapping mutation spectrum. Clinical data of 901 Asian patients (476 Chinese patients, 217 Japanese patients, and 208 Korean patients) and 720 Caucasian patients, in a total of 1621 patients were analyzed and compared between different populations.

resultsTwo novel mutations (c.400T>C, p.Cys134Arg; c.1511G>A, p.Cys504Tyr) and 24 known cysteine-affecting variants were identified in 36 pedigrees. Genetic spectrums of Asians (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) and Caucasians were clarified, p.R544C and p.R607C were the most common mutations in Asians while p.R1006C and p.R141C in Caucasians. For clinical features, Asians were more likely to develop symptoms of TIA or ischemic stroke (p < 0.0001) and cognitive impairment (p < 0.0001). Nevertheless, Caucasians had a higher tendency to present migraine (p < 0.0001) and psychiatric disturbance (p < 0.0001). The involvement of temporal pole was more likely to happen in Caucasians (p < 0.0001).

conclusionThe findings help to better understand the clinical variability and genetic heterogeneity of CADASIL.
