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 perform complex preimplantation genetic tests (PGT) for aneuploidy screening, Robertsonian translocation, HLA-matching, and X-linked hyper IgM syndrome (XHIGM) caused by a novel mutation c.156 G>T of CD40LG gene.

methodsReverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and Sanger sequencing were carried out to confirm the causative variant of CD40LG gene in the proband and parents. Day 5 and D6 blastocysts, obtained by in vitro fertilization (IVF) with intracytoplasmic sperm injection, underwent trophectoderm (TE) biopsy and whole genomic amplification (WGA) and next generation sequencing (NGS)-based PGT to detect the presence of a maternal CD40LG mutation, aneuploidy, Robertsonian translocation carrier, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype.

resultsSanger sequencing data of the genomic DNA showed that the proband has a hemizygous variant of c. 156 G>T in the CD40LG gene, while his mother has a heterozygous variant at the same position. Complementary DNA (cDNA) of CD40LG amplification and sequencing displayed that no cDNA of CD40LG was found in proband, while only wild-type cDNA of CD40LG was amplified in the mother. PGT results showed that only one of the six tested embryos is free of the variant c.156 G>T and aneuploidy and having the consistent HLA type as the proband. Meanwhile, the embryo is a Robertsonian translocation carrier. The embryo was transplanted into the mother's uterus. Amniotic fluid testing results are consistent with that of PGT. A healthy baby girl was delivered, and the peripheral blood testing data was also consistent with the testing results of transplanted embryo.

conclusionsThe novel mutation of c. 156 G>T in CD40LG gene probably leads to XHIGM by nonsense-meditated mRNA decay (NMD), and complex PGT of preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease (PGT-M), aneuploidy (PGT-A), structural rearrangement (PGT-SR), and HLA-matching (PGT-HLA) can be performed in pedigree with both X-linked hyper IgM syndrome and Robertsonian translocation.
