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

backgroundDefects of mitochondrial ATP synthase (ATPase) represent an emerging, yet incompletely understood group of neurodevelopmental diseases with abnormal movements.

objectiveThe aim of this study was to redefine the phenotypic and mutational spectrum of movement disorders linked to the ATPase subunit-encoding genes ATP5F1A and ATP5F1B.

methodsWe recruited regionally distant patients who had been genome or exome sequenced. Fibroblast cultures from two patients were established to perform RNA sequencing, immunoblotting, mass spectrometry-based high-throughput quantitative proteomics, and ATPase activity assays. In silico three-dimensional missense variant modeling was performed.

resultsWe identified a patient with developmental delay, myoclonic dystonia, and spasticity who carried a heterozygous frameshift c.1404del (p.Glu469Serfs*3) variant in ATP5F1A. The patient's cells exhibited significant reductions in ATP5F1A mRNA, underexpression of the α-subunit of ATPase in association with other aberrantly expressed ATPase components, and compromised ATPase activity. In addition, a novel deleterious heterozygous ATP5F1A missense c.1252G>A (p.Gly418Arg) variant was discovered, shared by three patients from two families with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). This variant mapped to a functionally important intersubunit communication site. A third heterozygous variant, c.1074+1G>T, affected a canonical donor splice site of ATP5F1B and resulted in exon skipping with significantly diminished ATP5F1B mRNA levels, as well as impaired ATPase activity. The associated phenotype consisted of cerebral palsy (CP) with prominent generalized dystonia.

conclusionsOur data confirm and expand the role of dominant ATP5F1A and ATP5F1B variants in neurodevelopmental movement disorders. ATP5F1A/ATP5F1B-related ATPase diseases should be considered as a cause of dystonia, HSP, and CP. © 2025 The Author(s).
