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

To assess the clinical utility of genome-wide oligonucleotide arrays in diagnosis of mental retardation and to address issues relating to interpretation of copy number changes (CNCs), we collected results on a total of 1499 proband patients from five academic diagnostic laboratories where the same 44K array platform has been used. Three of the five laboratories achieved a diagnostic yield of 14% and the other two had a yield of 11 and 7%, respectively. Approximately 80% of the abnormal cases had a single segment deletion or duplication, whereas the remaining 20% had a compound genomic imbalance involving two or more DNA segments. Deletion of 16p11.2 is a common microdeletion syndrome associated with mental retardation. We classified pathogenic CNCs into six groups according to the structural changes. Our data have demonstrated that the 44K platform provides a reasonable resolution for clinical use and a size of 300 kb can be used as a practical cutoff for further investigations of the clinical relevance of a CNC detected with this platform. We have discussed in depth the issues associated with the clinical use of array CGH and provided guidance for interpretation, reporting, and counseling of test results based on our experience.
