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

Genetic testing is recommended for patients with ASD; however specific recommendations vary by specialty. American Academy of Pediatrics and American Academy of Neurology guidelines recommend G-banded karyotype and Fragile X DNA. The American College of Medical Genetics recommends Chromosomal Microarray Analysis (CMA). We determined the yield of CMA (N = 85), karyotype (N = 119), and fragile X (N = 174) testing in a primary pediatrics autism practice. We found twenty (24%) patients with abnormal CMA results (eight were clinically significant), three abnormal karyotypes and one Fragile X syndrome. There was no relationship between CMA result and cognitive level, seizures, dysmorphology, congenital malformations or behavior. We conclude that CMA should be the clinical standard in all specialties for first tier genetic testing in ASD.
