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

Fanconi anemia (FA) is the most common inherited bone marrow failure disorder, caused by pathogenic variants in genes involved in the FA DNA repair pathway. In this issue of the JCI, two studies report three germline homozygous loss-of-function variants in FAAP100, a key component of the FA core complex, identified in three unrelated families. These variants result in severe developmental phenotypes that are among the most extreme reported in FA to date. Harrison et al. described individuals from two families with recurrent pregnancy loss and neonatal death due to homozygous FAAP100 frameshift and truncating variants, respectively. Kuehl et al. identified a homozygous missense variant in a fetus with congenital malformations consistent with FA. Collectively, both studies provide robust functional evidence from ex vivo and in vitro assays with animal models supporting the pathogenicity of these variants and establish FAAP100 as a causative FA gene.
