A Computational Approach: The Functional Effects of Thyroid Peroxidase Variants in Thyroid Cancer and Genetic Disorders.
Article in JCO clinical cancer informatics, 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
purposeThyroid peroxidase (TPO) is essential for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. However, specific mutations render TPO antigenic and prone to autoimmune attacks leading to thyroid cancer, TPO deficiency, and congenital hypothyroidism (CH). Despite technological advancement, most experimental procedures cannot quickly identify the genetic causes of CH nor detect thyroid cancer in the early stages.
methodsWe performed saturated computational mutagenesis to calculate the folding energy changes (∆∆G) caused by missense mutations and analyzed the mutations involved in post-translational modifications (PTMs).
resultsOur results showed that the functional important missense mutations occurred in the heme peroxidase domain. Through computational saturation mutagenesis, we identified the TPO mutations in G393 and G348 affecting protein stability and PTMs. Our folding energy calculations revealed that seven of nine somatic thyroid cancer mutations destabilized TPO.
conclusionThese findings highlight the impact of these specific mutations on TPO stability, linking them to thyroid cancer and other genetic thyroid-related disorders. Our results show that computational mutagenesis of proteins provides a quick insight into rare mutations causing Mendelian disorders and cancers in humans.
