Supporting Patient Autonomy and Informed Decision-Making in Prenatal Genetic Testing.
Review in Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

10 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 19 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
Genetic counselors have both the burden and the privilege of supporting patients who are faced with making difficult decisions. In the prenatal setting, genetic counselors are responsible for reviewing a growing list of prenatal testing options for patients with the goal of helping people to anticipate the potential consequences of their decision. Prenatal genetic counselors also support patients in making decisions about the next steps after clinical evaluation has indicated a genetic condition, birth defect, or information of uncertain clinical significance in the fetus. The information provided and choices patients face in the context of prenatal and reproductive genetics can be life-altering, and decisions often must be made within a short window of time. It is imperative that the needs and preferences of each patient are considered and that individuals are empowered to make active decisions that are consistent with their needs and values. Here we will review the history of the role of the genetic counselor in the prenatal setting and will provide strategies and tools for supporting informed patient decision-making in the face of an increasingly complex reproductive genetic testing landscape.
