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

The dicentric Y chromosomes are the most commonly found in the structural aberration of Y chromosome. If the dicentric chromosome has completely symmetric arms, it is considered an isodicentric chromosome. The sites of breakage and fusion at Yp and Yq are variable, but breakage and fusion at the pseudo-autosomal region has never been reported. Herein we reported identification de novo isodicentric (Yq12) in a fetus. The fusion occurred at Yq pseudo-autosomal region very close the telomere and resulted in duplication of Y chromosome. The baby was grossly normal at birth. In conclusion, isodicentric Y chromosome could result from breakage and fusion at the Yq pseudo-autosomal region.
