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

Inherited deficiency of the antithrombin (hereditary antithrombin deficiency, AT deficiency, OMIM #613118) is a relatively rare (1:2,000-3,000) autosomal-dominant disorder with high risk of venous thromboembolism. The molecular basis of this condition has not yet fully understood, highlighting the need for further research to elucidate the underlying pathological mechanisms.This study aimed to investigate coagulation parameters and genetic phenotypes in a proband with hereditary antithrombin deficiency and her family members. Additionally, the investigation sought to provide preliminary insights for the molecular pathogenesis of this condition.Blood coagulation parameters, including plasma antithrombin activity (AT:A), antithrombin antigen (AT:Ag), protein C activity (PC:A), and protein S activity (PS:A) were measured in the peripheral blood of each family member by a Stago instrument. Peripheral blood was also extracted and sequenced to identify possible genetic mutation sites. The functional impact of variants on protein was subsequently analyzed by bioinformatics software.The proband, her mother, and brother all exhibited decreased activity and antigen of AT but normal PC and PS activity. The proband's father had normal activity and antigen levels of AT, PC, and PS. Sequencing revealed the proband's mother inherited the SERPINC1:c.661T > C,p.(Trp221Arg) heterozygous variant and her father harbored PROC:c.572_574del,p.(Lys193del) heterozygous variant while the proband as well as her brother carried both. Conservation analysis revealed that Trp221 is highly conserved across homologous species. Bioinformatics tools consistently classify the p.Trp221Arg mutation as "pathogenic" or "deleterious." Protein modeling indicated that the p.Trp221Arg variant does not alter the protein structure but may modify glycosylation sites to affect its function.The proband and family members exhibited varying degrees of decreased levels of AT and thrombosis, which were closely associated with inheritance of SERPINC1:c.661T > C,p.(Trp221Arg).
