Targeted next-generation sequencing-based molecular diagnosis of congenital hand malformations in Chinese population.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. 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
Congenital hand malformations is rare and characterized by hand deformities. It is highly heterogeneous, both clinically and genetically, which complicates the identification of causative genes and mutations. Recently, targeted next-generation (NGS) sequencing has been successfully used for the detection of heterogeneous diseases, and the use of NGS also has contributed significantly in evaluating the etiology of heterogeneous disease. Here, we employed targeted NGS to screen 248 genes involved in genetic skeletal disorders, including congenital hand malformations. Three pathogenic mutations located in the GJA1, ROR2 and TBX5 genes were detected in three large Chinese families with congenital hand malformations. Two novel mutations were reported, and a known causative mutation was verified in this Chinese population. This is also the first report that the same panel of targeted NGS was employed to perform molecular diagnosis of different subtypes of congenital hand malformations. Our study supported the application of a targeted NGS panel as an effective tool to detect the genetic cause for heterogeneous diseases in clinical diagnosis.
