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

Duplication and deletion of the peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) and hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP), respectively, while point mutations or small insertions and deletions (indels) usually cause CMT type 1E (CMT1E) or HNPP. This study was performed to identify PMP22 mutations and to analyze the genotype−phenotype correlation in Korean CMT families. By the application of whole-exome sequencing (WES) and targeted gene panel sequencing (TS), we identified 14 pathogenic or likely pathogenic PMP22 mutations in 21 families out of 850 CMT families who were negative for 17p12 (PMP22) duplication. Most mutations were located in the well-conserved transmembrane domains. Of these, eight mutations were not reported in other populations. High frequencies of de novo mutations were observed, and the mutation sites of c.68C>G and c.215C>T were suggested as the mutational hotspots. Affected individuals showed an early onset-severe phenotype and late onset-mild phenotype, and more than 40% of the CMT1E patients showed hearing loss. Physical and electrophysiological symptoms of the CMT1E patients were more severely damaged than those of CMT1A while similar to CMT1B caused by MPZ mutations. Our results will be useful for the reference data of Korean CMT1E and the molecular diagnosis of CMT1 with or without hearing loss.
