Yeast models for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-causing aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase alleles reveal the cellular basis of disease.
Review in IUBMB life, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a genetically diverse hereditary disorder that affects the motor and sensory nerves, impacting about 1 in 2500 people. It can be inherited through autosomal dominant (AD), autosomal recessive (AR), or X-linked genetic patterns. CMT2, one of the primary subtypes, is characterized by axonal degeneration and commonly presents with muscle weakness, atrophy, foot deformities, and sensory loss. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) play an important role in the genetic underpinnings of CMT2, with more than 60 disease-causing alleles identified across eight different aaRSs, including alanyl-, asparaginyl-, histidyl-, glycyl-, methionyl-, tryptophanyl-, seryl-, and tyrosyl-tRNA synthetases. Mutations in aaRS genes can lead to destabilization of the enzyme, reduced aminoacylation, and aberrant protein complex formation. Yeast as a simple organism provides a robust model system to study the pathogenic effects of aaRS CMT mutations. In this review, we discuss the advantages and limitations of the yeast model systems for CMT2-causative mutations in aaRS.
