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

backgroundAcne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, recurrent inflammatory disease of the skin that can significantly affect patients' quality of life. The etiology and pathogenesis of HS are unclear and gene mutations might play a role. SUMMARY: The primary focus of the review is on aggregating the gene mutations reported, summarizing the structure of γ-secretase and analyzing and speculating about the mechanism and the underlying relations between gene mutation and functional changes of protein. The systematic literature review was done by searching the PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases. γ-Secretase is an intramembrane protease complex responsible for the intramembranous cleavage of more than 30 type-1 transmembrane proteins including amyloid precursor protein and Notch receptors. The protein complex consists of four hydrophobic proteins: presenilin, presenilin enhancer-2 (PSENEN), nicastrin, and anterior pharynx defective 1 (APH1). To date, 57 mutations of γ-secretase genes have been reported in 70 patients or families worldwide, including 39 in NCSTN, 14 in PSENEN, and 4 in PSEN1, of which 17 are frameshifts, 15 result in nonsense mutations, 13 in missense mutations, and 12 are splice site mutations. Given the structure of γ-secretase and analysis of related mutation loci of NCSTN, PSENEN, and PSEN1, mutations in γ-secretase genes could affect activation of presenilin, prevent substrate binding, and hinder intramembrane cleavage of select proteins.
