Molecular and in silico analyses of SYN III gene variants in autism spectrum disorder.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDefects in neurotransmission and synaptogenesis are noteworthy in the pathogenesis of ASD. Synapsin III (SYN III) is defined as a synaptic vesicle protein that plays an important role in synaptogenesis and regulation of neurotransmitter release and neurite outgrowth. Therefore, SYN III may associate with many neurodevelopmental diseases, including ASD.
aimThe aim of this study was to investigate whether the SYN III gene -631 C > G (rs133946) and -196 G > A (rs133945) polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to ASD.
methodsSYN III variants and the risk of ASD were investigated in 26 healthy children and 24 ASD children. SYN III gene variants were genotyped by PCR-RFLP methods. The differences in genotype and allele frequencies between the ASD and control groups were calculated using the chi-square (χ2). We analysed the SYN III gene using web-based tools.
resultsOur results suggest that the presence of the AA genotype of the SYN III -196 G > A (rs133945) polymorphism affects the characteristics and development of ASD in children (p = 0.012). SYN III -631 C > G (rs133946) polymorphism was not associated with ASD (p = 0.524). We have shown the prediction of gene-gene interaction that SYN III is co-expressed with 17 genes, physical interaction with 3 genes, and co-localization with 12 genes. The importance of different genes (SYN I, II, III, GABRD, NOS1AP, GNAO1) for ASD pathogenesis was revealed by GO analysis.
conclusionConsidering the role of SYN III and related genes, especially in the synaptic vesicle pathway and neurotransmission, its effect on ASD can be further investigated.
