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

Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a rare autosomal dominant inherited cancer syndrome that is characterized by hemangioblastomas in the central nervous system and retina, renal cell carcinoma and cysts, pancreatic tumors and cysts, and pheochromocytoma. The underlying gene in this disease is the VHL tumor suppressor gene. We characterized a family with 2 affected siblings. The brother and sister displayed VHL type 2B and type 2A features, respectively. Renal lesions in the brother exhibited 3 different phenotypes, including simple renal cysts, multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma and clear cell renal cell carcinoma. The phenotypes of the 3 concurrent renal lesions were first reported in this study. Mutation detection of the VHL gene revealed 2 recurrent mutations, namely c.256C>T (p.P86S) and c.340 + 5G > C. The former was predicted to be deleterious and to destabilize the hydrophobic core and lead to VHL dysfunction; however, the latter was predicted to be a benign variant. Our findings provided new data for the genotype-phenotype of VHL diseases and elucidated the pathogenic mechanism with in silico analysis.
