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

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is diagnostic tool to avoid inheritance of genetic disease by transferring unaffected embryos. Recently, PCR and FISH have been mainly applied to the diagnosis of single gene disorders and chromosomal abnormalities, respectively. Since with PGD, only a few cells are available for genetic tests, both gene and chromosomes analysis have to be obtained from the same, limited material. Cell recycling makes it possible to obtain the information on genes as well as chromosomes from the same cells. Therefore cell recycling is an acceptable strategy where in PGD targets large proportions of embryos severe chromosomal abnormalities. The responsible genes of the X-linked disorder and numerical abnormalities of sex chromosomes should be analyzed simultaneously. Gender information is definitely useful because only male affected embryos should be avoided for transfer.
