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

backgroundBRAT1 (BRCA1-associated ataxia telangiectasia mutated activator 1) is involved in many important biological processes, including DNA damage response and maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis. Dysfunctional BRAT1 causes variable clinical phenotypes, which hinders BRAT1-related disease from recognition and diagnosis.

methodsPreferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement was the guideline for this systematic review. MEDLINE was searched by terms ("BAAT1" and "BRAT1") from inception until June 21, 2022.

resultsTwenty-eight studies, screened out of 49 records, were included for data extraction. The data from fifty patients with mutated BRAT1 were collected. There are 3 high relevant phenotypes, 4 medium relevant phenotypes and 3 low relevant phenotypes. Eye-related abnormal features were most frequently reported: 27 abnormal features were observed. Thirty-nine kinds of pathogenic nucleotide change in BRAT1 were reported. Top three common mutations of BRAT1 were c.638_639insA (16 cases), c.1395G > A (5 cases) and c.294dupA (4 cases). Homozygous mutations in BRAT1 presented a more severe phenotype than those who are compound heterozygotes.

conclusionsThis is the first comprehensive systematic review to present quantitative data about clinical characteristics of BRAT1-related disease, which helps doctors to recognize and diagnose it easier.
