Role of Clinical Genetic Testing in the Management of Aortopathies.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
purpose of reviewThoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) have a strong heritable basis, and identification of a genetic etiology has important implications for patients with TAA and their relatives. This review provides an overview of Mendelian causes of TAA, discusses important considerations for genetic testing, and summarizes the impact a genetic diagnosis may have on a patient's medical care. RECENT
findingsThoracic aortic disease may be non-syndromic or seen as part of a genetic syndrome, such as Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome, or vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Expanded access to genetic testing has revealed the wide and overlapping phenotypic spectrum of these conditions, highlighting the need for genetic testing to establish an accurate diagnosis. Important aspects of genetic evaluation include thorough phenotyping through family history and physical examination, selection of an appropriate genetic test driven by the patient's phenotype, and careful interpretation of genetic test results. Improved understanding of the natural history of these conditions has led to tailored management recommendations, including gene-based recommendations for prophylactic surgical repair. Identification of a genetic etiology allows for careful monitoring of disease progression, informs the timing of prophylactic surgical repair, and facilitates the identification of other at-risk relatives through cascade genetic testing.
