Consanguinity and genetic diseases among the Bedouin population in the Negev.
Review in Journal of community genetics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 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
Arab Bedouins (AB) in Israel are traditionally a semi-nomadic population. Their average birth rate is extremely high (birth rate of 5.43, as well is their high consanguinity rate (44%), despite having decreased from 60% in 1992. Additionally, their mean inbreeding coefficient is 0.0238.The high rate of consanguinity results in a high prevalence of recessive genetic and multifactorial disorders as well as high infant mortality rate (11 per 1000 live births). Various genetic diseases are prevalent in AB, exemplifying how extensive the impact of consanguinity is on the community. Targeted screening programs are provided for prevalent severe genetic diseases. However, despite initial success, genetic screening is still underutilized in AB. AB, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education, and different social associations should plan and manage programmed interventions. These programs should work intensively to further educate and raise awareness regarding consanguinity and its potential harms, to increase trust and collaboration between the community and the public health system, to expand screening and premarital consultations, and to create a genetic bank (specific mutations/whole genome) for the AB community.
