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

purposeWe previously developed Haploseek, a method for comprehensive preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). However, some key features were missing, and the method has not yet been systematically validated.

methodsWe extended Haploseek to incorporate DNA from embryo grandparents and to allow testing of variants on chromosome X or in regions where parents share common haplotypes. We then validated Haploseek on 151 embryo biopsies from 27 clinical PGT cases. We sequenced all biopsies to low coverage (0.2×), and performed single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarray genotyping on the embryos' parents and siblings/grandparents. We used the extended Haploseek to predict chromosome copy-number variants (CNVs) and relevant variant-flanking haplotypes in each embryo. We validated haplotype predictions for each clinical sample against polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based PGT case results, and CNV predictions against established commercial kits.

resultsFor each of the 151 embryo biopsies, all Haploseek-derived haplotypes and CNVs were concordant with clinical PGT results. The cases included 17 autosomal dominant, 5 autosomal recessive, and 3 X-linked monogenic disorders. In addition, we evaluated 1 Robertsonian and 2 reciprocal translocations, and 17 cases of chromosome copy-number counting were performed.

conclusionOur results demonstrate that Haploseek is clinically accurate and fit for all standard clinical PGT applications.
