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

backgroundBrugada syndrome (BrS) is an arrhythmia disorder most commonly associated with loss-of-function variants in the SCN5A gene. We report a 33-year-old man presenting with spontaneous type-1 BrS electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern and recurrent syncope. CASE SUMMARY: Sequencing revealed a heterozygous SCN5A variant, c.1768 A>C (p.K590Q), which was absent from the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD), gnomAD (allele frequency 0.000004), ClinVar, and the 1000 Genomes database. The substituted lysine is highly conserved across species (HomoloGene) and resides in the domain II-III linker at the extracellular pore entrance. In silico analyses (PolyPhen-2 and MutationTaster) predicted a deleterious effect. Following implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, the patient has remained asymptomatic for 14 months. The same variant was detected in his 6-year-old son, who currently shows no ECG abnormalities.

conclusionThe SCN5A c.1768 A>C substitution represents a novel, ultra-rare missense change variant. Its evolutionary conservation, predicted pathogenicity, and familial segregation support a probable association with BrS, warranting further functional characterization.
