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

Kinesin Family Member 21B (KIF21B) encoded by KIF21B (MIM*608322), belongs to the Kinesin superfamily proteins, which play a key role in microtubule organisation in neuronal dendrites and axons. Recently, heterozygous variants in KIF21B were implicated as the cause of intellectual disability and brain malformations in four unrelated individuals. We report a 9-year-old male with delayed speech, hyperactivity, poor social interaction, and autistic features. A parent-offspring trio exome sequencing identified a novel de novo rare heterozygous variant, NM_001252102.2: c.1513A>C, p.(Ser505Arg) in exon 11 of KIF21B. In vivo functional analysis using in utero electroporation in mouse embryonic cortex revealed that the expression of Ser505Arg KIF21B protein in the cerebral cortex impaired the radial migration of projection neurons, thus confirming the pathogenicity of the variant. Our report further validates pathogenic variants in KIF21B as a cause of neurodevelopmental disorder.
