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

aimsThis study aimed to identify a novel splicing-altering LAMP2 variant associated with Danon disease. METHODS AND

resultsTo identify the potential genetic mutation in a Chinese pedigree, whole-exome sequencing was conducted in the proband, and Sanger sequencing was performed on the proband's parents. To verify the impact of the splice-site variant, a minigene splicing assay was applied. The AlphaFold2 analysis was used to analyse the mutant protein structure. A splice-site variant (NM_013995.2:c.864+5G>A) located at intron 6 of the LAMP2 gene was identified as a potential pathogenic variant. The minigene splicing revealed that this variant causes exon 6 to be skipped, resulting in a truncated protein. The AlphaFold2 analysis showed that the mutation caused a protein twist direction change, leading to conformational abnormality.

conclusionsA novel splice-site variant (NM_013995.2:c.864+5G>A) located at intron 6 of the LAMP2 gene was identified. This discovery may enlarge the LAMP2 variant spectrum, promote accurate genetic counselling, and contribute to the diagnosis of Danon disease.
