Multimodal imaging and genetic screening in Mexican patients with Gyrate atrophy: identification of novel OAT pathogenic variants.
Article in International ophthalmology, 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
purposeDescription of retinal phenotype by structural and functional testing, ornithine plasma levels and mutational data of OAT gene in patients with Gyrate Atrophy (GA).
methodsOphthalmologic examination, fundus photography (CFP), autofluorescence (FAF), spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), Goldmann perimetry (GP), full-field electroretinogram (ffERG) and chromatic perimetry (CP) testing were performed. Ornithine plasma levels were measured. Sanger sequencing mutational analysis of the coding exons and exon-intron junctions of the OAT gene were analyzed.
resultsTwelve eyes of seven Mexican patients with GA were included. CFF showed peripheric patches of chorioretinal atrophy; FAF revealed peripheric oval areas of hypoautofluorescence; SD-OCT exhibited outer retinal tubulations in 58%, cystoid macular edema in 50%, epiretinal membrane in 42%, foveoschisis and staphyloma in 17%, and hyperreflective deposits in 100% of the eyes; GP showed constricted visual fields in 100% of the eyes; ffERG revealed preserved photopic response in 17% and preserved scotopic response in 17% of the eyes; CP exposed a deficit in generalized response of rods and cones in 100% of the eyes. Mean ornithine plasma levels were 509.5 µmol/L. One patient with genetic confirmation of GA had normal ornithine plasma levels (48 µmol/L). Molecular findings in OAT gene detected two novel pathogenic variants: c.796 C > T (p.Gln266*) and c.721_722dupCC (p.Asp242ArgfsTer6).
conclusionThis study provides new information regarding functional and structural diagnosis in patients with GA, expands the understanding of retinal phenotype in patients with GA, reports two novel mutations and presents the first case of GA confirmed by genetic testing with normal ornithine levels.
