A novel variant of biallelic MME gene associated with autosomal recessive late-onset distal hereditary motor neuropathy in Chinese families.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 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
Distal hereditary motor neuropathies (dHMN) are a group of heterogeneous diseases and previous studies have reported that the compound heterozygous recessive MME variants cause dHMN. Our study found a novel homozygous MME variant and a reported compound heterozygous MME variant in two Chinese families, respectively. Next-generation sequencing and nerve conduction studies were performed for two probands. The probands in two families presented with the muscle weakness and wasting of both lower limbs and carried a c.2122 A > T (p.K708*) and c.1342 C > T&c.2071_2072delinsTT (p.R448*&p.A691L) variant, respectively. Prominently axonal impairment of motor nerves and slight involvement of sensory nerves were observed in nerve conduction study. Our study reported a "novel" nonsense mutation and a missense variant of autosomal recessive late-onset dHMN and reviewed reported MME variants associated with dHMN phenotype.
