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

Hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy (HCM, DCM) are leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in children. The pseudokinase alpha-protein kinase 3 (ALPK3) plays an essential role in sarcomere organization and cardiomyocyte differentiation. ALPK3 coding mutations are causative of recessively inherited pediatric-onset DCM and HCM with variable expression of facial dysmorphism and skeletal abnormalities and implicated in dominantly inherited adult-onset cardiomyopathy. We now report two variants in ALPK3-a coding variant and a novel intronic variant affecting splicing. We demonstrate that compound heterozygosity for both variants is highly suggestive to be causative of infantile-onset HCM with webbed neck, and heterozygosity for the coding variant presents with adult-onset HCM. Our data validate partial penetrance of heterozygous loss-of-function ALPK3 mutations in late-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and expand the genotypic spectrum of autosomal recessive ALPK3-related cardiac disease with Noonan-like features.
