Whole-Exome Sequencing (WES) results of 50 patients with chronic kidney diseases: a perspective of Alport syndrome.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveChronic kidney disease (CKD) remains one of the major common health problems, and the number of people affected by the disease is progressively increasing in Turkey and worldwide. This study aimed to investigate molecular defects in Alport syndrome (AS) and other genes in patients with clinically suspected CKD using whole-exome sequencing (WES).
methodsPatients with clinical suspicion of CKD were included in the study. Molecular genetic analyses were performed on genomic DNA by using WES.
resultsA total of 15 with 5 different pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants were identified in CKD patients, with a diagnostic rate of 30%. Eight variants of uncertain significance were also detected. In this study, 10 variants were described for the first time. As a result, we detected variants associated with CKD in our study population and found AS as the most common CKD after other related kidney diseases.
conclusionsOur results suggest that in heterogeneous diseases such as CKD, WES analysis enables accurate identification of underlying molecular defects promptly. Although CKD accounts for 10-14% of all renal dysfunction, molecular genetic diagnosis is necessary for optimal long-term treatment, prognosis, and effective genetic counseling. .
