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

The q11.2 region on chromosome 22 contains numerous low-copy repeats that lead to deleted or duplicated regions in the chromosome, thereby resulting in different syndromes characterized by intellectual disabilities or congenital anomalies. The association between patient phenotypes and 22q11.2 copy number abnormalities has been previously described in postnatal cases; however, these features have not been systematically evaluated in prenatal cases because of limitations in phenotypic identification in prenatal testing. In this study, we investigated the detection rate of 22q11.2 copy number abnormalities in 2500 fetuses using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and determined the common abnormal ultrasound findings in fetuses carrying the 22q11.2 copy number abnormalities. The 22q11.2 copy number abnormalities were identified in 13 fetuses with cardiovascular malformations (6/13), kidney malformations (3/13), isolated ultrasound markers (3/13), or high-risk Down syndrome based on maternal serum screening (1/13). Approximately 0.5% (13/2500) of the fetuses harbored 22q11.2 copy number abnormalities. The most frequent ultrasound findings in fetuses with these abnormalities were cardiovascular malformations, followed by kidney malformations and isolated ultrasound markers. Prenatal diagnosis of these genetic abnormalities allows for the delineation of differential diagnoses, characterization of a wide spectrum of associated malformations, and determination of associations that exist between prenatal diagnosis and obstetrical outcomes.
