LAMB2 gene: broad clinical spectrum in Pierson syndrome.
Article in CEN case reports, 2024. 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
Pierson syndrome (PS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease, characterized by congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS), and ocular and neurologic abnormalities. In affected cases, there is abnormal b-2 laminin which is compound of the several basement membranes caused by inherited mutations in the LAMB2 gene. Although patients have mutations in the same gene, the phenotype is highly variable. In this case series, the relationship between genotype and phenotype is emphasized, and information about the clinical follow-up of the patients is presented. Hereby, we report four pediatric cases with PS as a result of mutation in the LAMB2 gene. Clinical spectrum of LAMB2-associated disorders varies from mild-to-severe ocular, kidney, and neurologic involvement. Since genotype-phenotype correlation in PS has not been clearly demonstrated, we recommend that all patients with ophthalmic anomalies and glomerular proteinuria should be tested for LAMB2 mutations.
