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

purposeGenetic causes of surfactant dysfunction are associated with childhood interstitial lung disease. Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 3 (LAMP3) is highly expressed within lamellar bodies of alveolar epithelial type II cells, and variants in LAMP3 have recently been suggested as a novel cause of childhood interstitial lung disease. This study describes the phenotypes of participants with biallelic variants in LAMP3 and presents functional studies evaluating the role of specific LAMP3 variants.

methodsPhenotypic data were collected through chart review and clinical evaluation. In vitro effects of LAMP3 variants were evaluated through immunohistochemistry, western blot, and flow cytometry.

resultsThirteen participants were identified with biallelic variants in LAMP3. They presented with variable phenotypes ranging from neonatal respiratory distress to asymptomatic in adulthood. All symptomatic participants demonstrated ground glass opacities early in life and lung fibrosis later in life. For 1 participant, BAL analysis showed abnormal surfactant protein composition and lung biopsy revealed irregular lamellar bodies. In vitro studies in lung epithelial cells with induced expression of specific LAMP3 variants demonstrated reduced protein expression and abnormal glycosylation.

conclusionBiallelic LAMP3 variants are associated with an interstitial lung disease phenotype with variable expressivity. Evaluation for LAMP3 variants should be considered in individuals with unexplained interstitial lung disease.
