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

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is widely applied in reciprocal translocation carriers to increase the chance for a successful live birth. However, reciprocal translocation carrier embryos were seldom discriminated from the normal ones mainly due to the technique restriction. Here we established a clinical applicable approach to identify precise breakpoint of reciprocal translocation and to further distinguish normal embryos in PGD. In the preclinical phase, rearrangement breakpoints and adjacent single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were characterized by next-generation sequencing following microdissecting junction region (MicroSeq) from 8 reciprocal translocation carriers. Junction-spanning PCR and sequencing further discovered precise breakpoints. The precise breakpoints were identified in 7/8 patients and we revealed that translocations in 6 patients caused 9 gene disruptions. In the clinical phase of embryo analysis, informative SNPs were chosen for linkage analyses combined with PCR analysis of the breakpoints to identify the carrier embryos. From 15 blastocysts diagnosed to be chromosomal balanced, 13 blastocysts were identified to be carriers and 2 to be normal. Late prenatal diagnoses for five carriers and one normal fetus confirmed the carrier diagnosis results. Our results suggest that MicroSeq can accurately evaluate the genetic risk of translocation carriers and carrier screen is possible in later PGD treatment.
