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

objectiveTo investigate the association between genotype and phenotype of microdeletion and microduplication syndromes (MMSs) and the pathogenesis of pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs).

methodsA total of 50 children with MMSs diagnosed by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) from June 2013 to September 2015 were enrolled, and the clinical manifestations and features of pathogenic CNVs were analyzed.

resultsThe main clinical manifestations of children with MMSs included mental retardation, developmental delay, short stature, and unusual facies, with the presence of abnormalities in multiple systems. There were 54 pathogenic CNVs in total, consisting of 36 microdeletion segments and 18 microduplication segments, with sizes ranging from 28 kb to 48.5 Mb (mean 13.86 Mb). Pathogenic CNVs often occurred in chromosomes X, 15, and 1.

conclusionsThe clinical manifestations of MMSs are not specific, and a genotype-first approach can be used for diagnosis. Mode of inheritance, type of recombination (deletion or duplication), size of segment, and functional genes included helps with the interpretation of CNVs of de novo mutations, and in-depth research on rare pathogenesis may become breakthrough points for the identification of new MMSs.
