Analysis of PDE6G mutations in a patient with retinitis pigmentosa.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundMutations in PDE6A and PDE6B are known to cause autosomal recessive RP in humans, On the other hand, mutations in PDE6G are rare but can lead to severe early-onset RP. CASE PRESENTATION: An 8-year-old Chinese boy was referred to our hospital for poor vision issues. Refraction with cycloplegia showed high hyperopia with astigmatism both eyes. Funduscopic examination revealed typical bone spicule-type pigment deposits in the periphery and midperiphery. The patient was given glasses and a whole exome sequencing containing mitochondrial genes was performed. The results of genetic testing showed that there was a heterozygous frameshift mutation and a segment deletion in the proband's PDE6G gene. Analysis of the parental genes showed that frameshift mutation was inherited from the proband's mother and segment deletion from his father.
conclusionsIn this paper, we give a firsthand report that the complex heterozygous mutations of PDE6G gene can causes autosomal recessiveRP (arRP), which expands the understanding of the pathogenic genes of RP.
