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 new genetics, defined as that which followed the completion of the human genome project and includes development of rapid and cheaper next-generation sequencing (NGS), is impacting our medical world in several ways (1). As is the case in any new area of medicine, the field is infused with "truthiness," where instead, what is needed for good patient care and scientific rigor is an effort to close in on the truth. Today, I'll discuss how variation in the human genome is being evaluated and re-evaluated as we sequence more and more of our patients' genes.
