Rare variants in IMPDH2 cause autosomal dominant dystonia in Chinese population.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
STUDY
objectivesRecently, IMPDH2 has been linked to dystonia. However, no replication study from other cohorts has been conducted to confirm the association. We aimed to systematically evaluate the genetic associations of IMPDH2 with dystonia in a large dystonia cohort.
methodsWe analyzed rare variants (minor allele frequency < 0.01) of IMPDH2 in 688 Chinese dystonia patients with whole exome sequencing. The over-representation of rare variants in patients was examined with Fisher's exact test at allele and gene levels.
resultsFour rare variants were detected in IMPDH2 in four patients with dystonia in our cohort, including three missense variants (p.Ser508Leu, p.Ala396Thr, and p.Phe24Val) and one splice acceptor variant (c.1296-1G>T). Two of them (c.1296-1G>T and p.Ser508Leu) were co-segregated in the family co-segregation analysis and were classified as pathogenic and likely pathogenic variant according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines, respectively. Gene burden analysis revealed enrichment of rare variants in IMPDH2 in dystonia.
conclusionsOur work supplemented the evidence on the role of IMPDH2 in autosomal dominant dystonia in Chinese population, and expanded the genetic and phenotypic spectrum of IMPDH2, paving way for future studies.
