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

objectiveTo further clarify genotype:phenotype correlations associated with variants in KCNC1 encoding the voltage-gated potassium (K+) channel subunit Kv3.1 and which are an emerging cause of a spectrum of neurological disease including intellectual disability, isolated myoclonus, progressive myoclonus epilepsy, and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy.

methodsWe describe the clinical and genetic characteristics of a series of three patients with de novo heterozygous missense variants in KCNC1 associated with nonspecific developmental delay/intellectual disability and central hypotonia without epilepsy or ataxia. All three variants lead to amino acids alterations with mild predicted differences in physicochemical properties yet are localized to the S6 pore region of the Kv3.1 protein between the selectivity filter and PXP motif important for K+ channel gating. We performed whole-cell voltage clamp electrophysiological recording of wild-type versus variants in a heterologous mammalian expression system.

resultsWe demonstrate a prominent leftward (hyperpolarized) shift in the voltage dependence of activation and slowed deactivation of all variants in the clinically defined series.

interpretationElectrophysiological recordings are consistent with a gain of K+ channel function that is predicted to exert a loss of function on the excitability of Kv3-expressing high frequency- firing neurons based on the unique electrophysiological properties of Kv3 channels. These results define a clinical-genetic syndrome within the spectrum of KCNC1-related neurological disorders.
