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

introductionAmyloidosis caused by TTR mutations (ATTRv) is a rare inherited and autosomal dominant disease. More than 150 mutants of TTR have been reported, whereas some of them remain to be investigated.

methodsA 52-year-old male presented with heart failure and clinically diagnosed ATTR cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) was recruited. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed. Biochemical and biophysical experiments characterized protein stability using urea-mediated tryptophan fluorescence. Drug response was analyzed by fibril formation assay. Finally, tetramer TTR concentration in patient's serum sample was measured by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC).

resultsFor the proband, WES revealed a mutation (c.200G&gt;T; p.Gly67Val and referred to as G47V) in TTR gene. Biochemical and biophysical kinetics study showed that the thermodynamic stability of G47V-TTR (Cm = 2.4 <sc>m</sc>) was significantly lower than that of WT-TTR (Cm = 3.4 <sc>m</sc>) and comparable to that of L55P-TTR (Cm = 2.3 <sc>m</sc>), an early age-of-onset mutation. G47V:WT-TTR heterozygous tetramer kinetic stability (t1/2 = 1.4 h) was further compromised compared to that of the homozygous G47V-TTR (t1/2 = 3.1 h). Among three small molecule stabilizers, AG10 exhibited the best inhibition of the fibrillation of G47V-TTR homozygous protein. Using a UPLC assay, nearly 40% of TTR in this patient was calculated to be non-tetrameric.

conclusionIn this work, we reported a patient presented early onset of clinically typical ATTR-CA due to G47V-TTR mutation. Our work for the first time not only characterized the biochemical properties of G47V-TTR mutation, but also provided hints for the pathogenicity of this mutation.
