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

Cilia are essential organelles, and variants in genes governing ciliary function result in ciliopathic diseases. The Ciliogenesis and PLANar polarity Effectors (CPLANE) protein complex is essential for ciliogenesis, and all but one subunit of the CPLANE complex have been implicated in human ciliopathy. Here, we identify three families in which variants in the remaining CPLANE subunit CPLANE2/RSG1 also cause ciliopathy. These patients display cleft palate, tongue lobulations and polydactyly, phenotypes characteristic of Oral-Facial-Digital Syndrome. We further show that these alleles disrupt two vital steps of ciliogenesis, basal body docking and recruitment of intraflagellar transport proteins. Moreover, APMS reveals that Rsg1 binds CPLANE and the transition zone protein Fam92 in a GTP-dependent manner. Finally, we show that CPLANE is generally required for normal transition zone architecture. Our work demonstrates that CPLANE2/RSG1 is a causative gene for human ciliopathy and also sheds new light on the mechanisms of ciliary transition zone assembly.
