Molecular cytogenetic characteristics of Down syndrome newborns.
Article in Journal of human genetics, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Down syndrome (DS) is a multifactorial disorder with a high predisposition to leukemia and other malignancies. A change in the replication pattern from synchronous in normal genes to asynchronous in DS amniocytes has previously been reported. The objective of this study was to evaluate additional molecular cytogenetic factors which could re-emphasize the high correlation between DS cells and genetic instability. We found a higher rate of random aneuploidy in chromosomes 9 and 18 and a higher rate of asynchronous replication in the subtelomeric region or DS leukocytes than in cells from normal newborns. In addition, the telomere capture phenomenon was observed in the DS leukocytes but not in normal controls. The molecular cytogenetic factors observed in the DS individuals are known to correlate with genomic instability and with predisposition to cancer.
