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

objectiveTo analyze the frequency of del22q11.2 in non-syndromic CHDs using classical cytogenetics and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technique in Indian population.

methods105 prospective cases which included 6 families with isolated, non-syndromic cardiac defects were analyzed clinically by a cardiologist and a geneticist. The cases were then subjected to karyotypic (classical cytogenetics) as well as FISH analysis. The efficacy of FISH technique was compared with inference drawn from classical cytogenetics.

resultsKaryotypic analysis of all the 105 patients revealed a normal chromosomal complement. Microdeletion 22q11.2 was observed in six patients (5.71%) by FISH studies. FISH studies were also performed on the parents of these six patients who revealed a normal chromosome 22. No correlation was found between clinical features (mild or unspecific) with 22q11.2 microdeletion.

conclusionThe testing for microdeletion 22q11.2 in isolated non-syndromic patients using FISH technique is mandatory even when mild/unspecific extracardiac abnormalities are seen in the patients.
