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 evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the BACs-on-Beads (BoBs) assay for the rapid diagnosis of common aneuploidies and microdeletion syndromes.

methodsBACs-on-Beads and chromosomal karyotyping were used for detecting 3647 cases of amniotic fluid samples with indications for prenatal diagnosis, which were collected from January 2015 to June 2017 in Xijing Hospital. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) or chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) provided further validation.

resultsThe overall abnormality detection rate (BoBs combined with karyotyping) was 7.73% (282/3647). A total of 209 chromosomal aneuploidies, 10 mosaic cases, 11 microdeletion/microduplication syndromes, and 52 structural abnormalities were observed. Both assays were concordant for trisomy 21 (4.22%, 154/3647), trisomy 18 (0.69%, 25/3647), trisomy 13 (0.05%, 2/3647), and sex chromosome aneuploidies (0.77%, 28/3647). Meanwhile, DiGeorge syndrome (0.05%, 2/3647), 22q11.2 microduplication (0.08%, 3/3647), Smith-Magenis syndrome (0.03%, 1/3647), 17p11.2 microduplication (0.03%, 1/3647), Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (0.03%, 1/3647), Williams-Beuren syndrome (0.03%, 1/3647), Cri du Chat syndrome (0.03%, 1/3647), and Miller-Dieker syndrome (0.03%, 1/3647) were identified by BoBs assay, thus giving the incidence of the detection of these syndromes of 0.30% (11/3647).

conclusionBACs-on-Beads assay is a reliable test for rapid detection of common aneuploidies and microdeletion syndromes, combining with karyotyping, FISH, and CMA, to improve the efficiency and accuracy of prenatal diagnosis to alleviate maternal emotional anxiety.
