Genome-wide UPD screening in patients with intellectual disability.
Article in European journal of human genetics : EJHG, 2014. 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
Uniparental disomy (UPD) describes the inheritance of a pair of chromosomes from only one parent. It may occur as isodisomy, heterodisomy or a combination of both and may involve only chromosome segments. UPD can affect each chromosome. The incidence is estimated to be around 1:3500 in live births. Some parts of chromosomes are subject to 'parent-of-origin imprinting' and the phenotypic effect in UPD syndromes is mainly due to functional imbalance of imprinted genes. Isodisomy can result in mutation homozygosity in autosomal-recessive inherited diseases. UPD causes several well-defined imprinting syndromes associated with intellectual disability (ID). Although knowledge on frequency and size of UPDs in patients with unexplained ID remains largely unknown as no efficient genome-wide screening technique was available for detection of both isodisomic and heterodisomic UPDs. SNP microarrays have been proven to be capable to detect UPDs through Mendelian errors. The correct subclassification of UPD requires child-parent trio experiments. To further elucidate the role of UPD in patients with unexplained ID, we analyzed a total of 322 child-parent trios. We were not able to detect UPDs (isodisomies and heterodisomies) within our cohort spanning whole chromosomes or chromosomal segments. We conclude that UPD is rare in patients with unexplained ID.
