An atypical form of 60S ribosomal subunit in Diamond-Blackfan anemia linked to RPL17 variants.
Article in JCI insight, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Diamond-Blackfan anemia syndrome (DBA) is a ribosomopathy associated with loss-of-function variants in more than 20 ribosomal protein (RP) genes. Here, we report the genetic, functional, and biochemical dissection of 2 multigenerational pedigrees with variants in RPL17, a large ribosomal subunit protein-encoding gene. Affected individuals had clinical features and erythroid proliferation defects consistent with DBA. Further, RPL17/uL22 depletion resulted in anemia and micrognathia in zebrafish larvae, and in vivo complementation studies indicated that RPL17 variants were pathogenic. Lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) derived from patients displayed a ribosomal RNA maturation defect reflecting haploinsufficiency of RPL17. The proteins encoded by RPL17 variants were not incorporated into ribosomes, but 10%-20% of 60S ribosomal subunits contained a short form of 5.8S rRNA (5.8SC), a species that is marginal in normal cells. These atypical 60S subunits were actively engaged in translation. Ribosome profiling showed changes of the translational profile, but those are similar to LCLs bearing RPS19 variants. These results link an additional RP gene to DBA. They show that ribosomes can be modified substantially by RPL17 haploinsufficiency but support the paradigm that translation alterations in DBA are primarily related to insufficient ribosome production rather than to changes in ribosome structure or composition.
