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

Variant Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTRv) neuropathy is an adult-onset, autosomal dominant, lethal, multisystemic disease due to the deposition of mutated transthyretin (TTR) in various organs, commonly involving the peripheral nerves and the heart. Circulating TTR tetramers are unstable due to the presence of mutated TTR and dissociate into monomers, which misfold and form amyloid fibrils. Although there are more than 140 mutations in the TTR gene, the p.Val50Met mutation is by far the commonest. In the typical, early-onset cases, it presents with a small sensory fibre and autonomic, length-dependent, axonal neuropathy, while in late-onset cases, it presents with a lengthdependent sensorimotor axonal neuropathy involving all fibre sizes. Treatment is now available and includes TTR stabilizers, TTR amyloid removal as well as gene silencing, while gene editing therapies are on the way. Its timely diagnosis is of paramount importance for a better prognosis.
