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

purposeTo present the first case proposing the use of preimplantation genetic testing for monogeneic disorders for Kallmann syndrome, providing comprehensive care in the genomic era of precision medicine.

methodsGonadotropin therapy was used for spermatogenesis, followed by in vitro fertilization by intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer. Cross-generational targeted next-generation sequencing was then done for genes known to cause Kallmann syndrome.

resultsA heterozygous mutation at codon 102 of the FGFR1 gene was found in the patient, but the father was found to have the same mutation yet is unaffected by Kallmann syndrome. Since no causative mutation was found, a de novo or sporadic mutation was suspected as the cause of Kallmann syndrome in this case.

conclusionsComprehensive care must be available for male Kallmann syndrome patients, as treatment should not stop at spermatogenesis, but continue with genetic counseling due to possible inheritance.
