1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Importance: Glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSDIb) is a rare metabolic disorder characterized by impaired glucose-6-phosphate transporter function with limited descriptions. Objective: To describe the genetic and clinical features of Chinese patients with GSDIb. Design, Setting, and Participants: This retrospective cohort study retrieved the medical records of 113 Chinese patients with GSDIb treated at a single institution in Shanghai from November 1, 2000, to June 30, 2024. Main Outcomes and Measures: Biochemical parameters and clinical features (infections, inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], kidney and cardiovascular issues, growth and puberty) at baseline and the last follow-up, all-cause mortality, and mental and social development were assessed. Results: A total of 113 patients (96 children [85%]; 67 males [59%]) had GSDIb genetically diagnosed at a median age of 1.4 (range, 0.0-35.5) years. Thirty-eight novel SLC37A4 variants were identified. Hypoglycemia and metabolic derangements were the primary concerns in patients aged 2 years or younger (45%). Short stature (75%), infections (75%), and recurrent epistaxis (31%) became more prevalent in patients aged 2.1 to 5.0 years. The frequency of respiratory tract infection decreased after a median age of 7.0 (IQR, 3.5-10.5) years. Forty-four patients (46%) developed IBD at a median age of 6.0 (IQR, 3.0-12.0) years, 14% of whom developed IBD-associated arthritis at a median age of 10.5 (IQR, 5.8-19.6) years. The mean (SD) difference between the z scores of actual height and target height (Δ height z scores) at the final visit (-2.11 [1.76]) did not significantly increase even after uncooked cornstarch treatment. The mean (SD) Δ height z scores of the patients with IBD (-2.99 [1.70]) were significantly lower than those without IBD (mean [SD], -1.36 [1.44]) (P < .001). Ten patients (9%) died due to complications of GSDIb, including metabolic derangements, sepsis, and/or severe pneumonia (n = 8), IBD (n = 1), and pulmonary hypertension (n = 1). Conclusions and Relevance: In this cohort study, the genetic and clinical spectra of GSDIb were broadened, suggesting associations between GSDIb and bowel, growth, and survival outcomes. To date, no previous study reported IBD-associated arthritis.
