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

backgroundUniparental disomy (UPD) is defined as an inheritance of two chromosomes from only one of the parents with no representative copy from the other. Paternal-origin UPD of chromosome 3 is a very rare condition, with only five cases of paternal UPD(3) reported. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we report a prenatal case that is only the second confirmed paternal UPD(3) reported with no apparent disease phenotype. The fetus had a normal karyotype and normal ultrasound features throughout gestation. Copy neutral regions of homozygosity on chromosome 3 were identified by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. Subsequent SNP array data of parent-child trios showed that the fetus carried complete paternal uniparental isodisomy (isoUPD) of chromosome 3. The parents decided to continue with the pregnancy after genetic counseling, and the neonate had normal physical findings at birth and showed normal development after 1.5 years.

conclusionsThese findings provided further evidence to confirm that there were no important imprinted genes on paternal chromosome 3 that caused serious diseases and a reference for the prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling of UPD(3) in the future.
