Preimplantation genetic diagnosis and deafness.
Article in Indian journal of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery : official publication of the Association of Otolaryngologists of India, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Deafness in India ranges from 4.0 % in urban and 4.0-11 % in rural and slum areas, out of which 50 % are of conductive hearing loss hence curable. In the congenital hearing loss the incidence of syndromic hearing loss is only 30 %, rest 70 % are non syndromic. Genetic counseling is going to make aware the parents. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis can help to have a baby free from genetic deafness. Procedure is almost safe, harmless, non-invasive and ethically acceptable. While by genetic testing through prenatal genetic testing, amniocentesis and chorionic villous sampling is invasive and termination of pregnancy is difficult, social and ethical issue. The connexin 26 (CX26W 24X) has been observed as most common and easy to identify by polymerase chain reaction. There is always co morbidity after cochlear implantation and the person remains handicapped while baby after PGD shall be having healthy normal life and person prone to environmental factors may be counseled and guided to prevent deafness in next generation. Public must be made aware of noise pollution, tobacco toxicity and consanguinity. The obstetrician and pediatrician apart from ENT surgeon should be involved to prevent antenatal or neonatal deafness.
