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

Oculoauriculovertebral spectrum (OAVS) is a rare class of heterogenous congenital craniofacial malformation conditions of unknown etiology. Although classic OAVS has been described as hemifacial microsomia with facial asymmetry and microtia, there is no consensus regarding clinical criteria for diagnosis or genetic cause. This systematic review aims to assess the applicability of high-resolution (HR) karyotype, fluorescence in situ hybridization, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), and microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) for differential diagnosis of OAVS. A search was performed in PubMed and Web of Science using all entry terms to the following descriptors: Goldenhar's syndrome, cytogenetic analysis, hybridization in situ, fluorescent, comparative genomic hybridization, multiplex polymerase chain reaction, whole genome sequencing, and karyotype analysis methods. After screening, 25 articles met eligibility. Of the included studies, 59 individuals had a genetic alteration identified. Array-CGH, MLPA, and HR karyotype appear to be viable approaches for molecular diagnosis in OAVS. Heterogeneity is a hallmark of OAVS. Establishing an enhanced framework for diagnosis would inform clinical decision making, and better resource utilization could improve health care facility efficiency and economy.
