Adam19 Deficiency Impacts Pulmonary Function: Human GWAS Follow-up in a Mouse Knockout Model.
Article in Lung, 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
purposeOver 550 loci have been associated with human pulmonary function in genome-wide association studies (GWAS); however, the causal role of most remains uncertain. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain 19 (ADAM19) are consistently related to pulmonary function in GWAS. Thus, we used a mouse model to investigate the causal link between Adam19 and pulmonary function.
methodsWe created an Adam19 knockout (KO) mouse model and validated the gene targeting using RNA-Seq and RT-qPCR. Mouse body composition was assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Mouse lung function was measured using flexiVent.
resultsContrary to prior publications, the KO was not neonatal lethal. KO mice had lower body weight and shorter tibial length than wild-type (WT) mice. Their body composition revealed lower soft weight, fat weight, and bone mineral content. Adam19 KO had decreased baseline respiratory system elastance, minute work of breathing, tissue damping, tissue elastance, and forced expiratory flow at 50% forced vital capacity but higher FEV
conclusionOur murine findings support a causal role of ADAM19, implicated in human GWAS, in regulating pulmonary function.
