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

purposeRecurrent Miscarriages (RM) commonly complicates the reproductive outcome where prominently chromosomal aberrations and molecular factors lead to recurrent miscarriages. We investigated couples with RM for cytogenetic abnormalities and Y chromosome microdeletions in males along with detection of aneuploidies de novo in the product of conception from a highly ethnic consanguineous population (Kashmir, North India) . STUDY

designChromosomal analysis was done by Karyotyping on peripheral blood lymphocyte cultures and analyzed by Cytovision software Version 3.9. Microdeletion in Y chromosome was performed by STS-PCR and QF-PCR was used to detect aneuploidy in the product of conception.

resultsOf the 380 samples (190 couples) screened for cytogenetic analysis, 50 (13.1%) chromosomal aberrations were detected in both couples. Numerical aberrations were detected in 16.0%, inversions 22%, duplications 16.0% and translocations were found in 26.0% with three unique reciprocal translocations in males. The couples bonded consanguineously had 32% chromosomal changes with a significant difference in chromosomal inversions (37.5% vs. 14.7%) and translocations (37.5% vs. 20.6%) for consanguineous and non-consanguineous group, respectively (p < 0.05). Further, translocations and inversions (44.5% and 33.3%) were significantly implicated in couples with a positive family history of RM (p < 0.05). Y chromosome deletions were found in 2.1% cases of males.

conclusionWe conclude 15.2% couples affected either by chromosomal or Y chromosome deletions contribute hugely in the diagnosis and management of repeated pregnancy losses. It is recommended that couples that belong to consanguineous and multigenerational group of RM should be considered for cytogenetic and molecular testing after two abortions for successful pregnancy outcomes and management of RM.
