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

backgroundHereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) is a progressive and fatal disease with heterogenous clinical presentations, limited diagnosis and poor prognosis. This retrospective analysis study aimed to report the genotypes and phenotypes of herediary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) in Chinese through a systematic review of published literature.

methodsThe systematic review included structured searches of peer-reviewed literature published from 2007 to 2020 of following online reference databases: PubMed, Web of Science and the literature database in China. Extracted data included sample size, personal information (sex, age, natural course, family history), mutation type, clinical milestones and reason of death.

resultsWe described 126 Chinese patients with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis identified through a systematic review of 30 studies. The most common genotype in the Chinese population was Gly83Arg (25, 19.8%), which most likely presented visual and neurological abnormalities without reported death. The second and third most common genotypes were Val30Met (20, 15.9%) and Val30Ala (10, 7.9%). Peripheral neurological manifestations (91, 72%) were dominant in 126 patients. The followed manifestation was autonomic neurological abnormalities (73, 58%). Half of the cases were reported to have visual disorders, and nearly one-third of the cases presented cardiac abnormalities. Among all 126 reported patients, 46.03% were classified as neurological type, 30.16% as mixed type and only 2.38% as cardiac type. In addition. Chinese patients were mostly early onset, with age of onset at 41.8 (SD: 8.9) years, and the median time from onset to death was 7.5 [IQR: 5.3] years. Patients with cardiac involvement had a shorter survival duration (log Rank (Mantel-Cox), χ

conclusionsThis study focused on 126 Chinese hATTR patients obtained from a literature review. A total of 26 kinds of TTR mutations were found and the most common one was Gly83Arg. As for phenotype, 46.03% were classified as neurological type, 30.16% as mixed type and only 2.38% as cardiac type. Chinese hATTR patients were mostly early onset (AO 41.8 years), and the median time from onset to death was 7.5 years.
