A case of polyglucosan body myopathy caused by an RBCK1 gene variant and literature review.
Review in Molecular genetics & genomic medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of a patient with Polyglucosan body myopathy 1 (PGBM1) caused by a novel compound heterozygous variant in the RBCK1 gene.
methodsThe clinical data of the patient were collected, next-generation sequencing technology was used to determine the exome sequence of the patient, and the suspected pathogenic locus was verified by Sanger sequencing.
resultsThrough whole-exome sequencing, we found that there were c.919G>T; p. (Glu307*) and c.723_730dup; p. (Glu244fs) variants of the RBCK1 gene in the patient, inherited from his parents, constituting a compound heterozygous variation. According to the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the two variants were rated as pathogenic, but there were no comparable cases. Previous literature reported 24 patients with RBCK1 gene variants, involving a total of 20 myocardial and 18 skeletal muscle cases.
conclusionsThe patient was twice diagnosed with cardiac insufficiency, neglecting the usual manifestations of muscle weakness, resulting in misdiagnosis. Later, novel variants in the RBCK1 gene were discovered through whole-exome sequencing, and symptomatic treatment was given after diagnosis. The importance of whole-exome sequencing technology in disease diagnosis and genetic counseling was emphasized.
