Case report: Three novel variants on SLC25A13 in four infants with neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) is a common clinical phenotype of citrin deficiency in infants. Its phenotype is atypical, so genetic testing is quite necessary for the diagnosis. Case presentation: We report 4 patients with jaundice and low body weight. Furthermore, the biochemical examination of all showed abnormal liver function and metabolic changes. DNA samples of the patients were extracted and subjected to genetic screening. All candidate pathogenic variants were validated by Sanger sequencing, and CNVs were ascertained by qPCR. The genetic screening revealed 6 variants in 4 patients, and all patients carried compound heterozygous variants of SLC25A13. Importantly, 3 variants were newly discovered: a nonsense mutation in exon17 (c.1803C > G), a frameshift mutation in exon 11(c.1141delG) and a deletion of the whole exon11. Thus, four NICCD patients were clearly caused by variants of SLC25A13. Biochemical indicators of all patients gradually returned to normal after dietary adjustment. Conclusions: Our study clarified the genetic etiology of the four infants, expanded the variant spectrum of SLC25A13, and provided a basis for genetic counseling of the family. Early diagnosis and intervention should be given to patients with NICCD.
