The impact of complex informative missingness on the validity of the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT).

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
The transmission/disequilibrium test was introduced to test for linkage and association between a marker and a putative disease locus using case-parent triads. Several extensions have been proposed to accommodate incomplete triads. Some strategies assumed that parental genotypes were missing completely at random and some methods allowed informative missingness for parental genotypes. However, the above tests assumed that offspring genotypes were missing completely at random and concluded that the transmission/disequilibrium test remained a valid test by excluding incomplete triads from the analysis. In this article, the conditional distribution of ascertained triads allowing informative missingness for offspring genotypes, as well as their parental genotypes, was derived and several tests under such scenarios were evaluated. In simulations, independent triads from the Genetic Analysis Workshop 15 simulated data (Problem 3) was ascertained. When offspring genotypes were missing informatively, simulation results revealed inflated type I error and/or reduced power for the transmission/disequilibrium test excluding incomplete triads.
