In Vitro Fertilization Using Preimplantation Genetic Testing in a Romanian Couple Carrier of Mutations in the TTN Gene: A Case Report and Literature Review.

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
Severe congenital myopathy with fatal cardiomyopathy (EOMFC) is a rare genetic neuromuscular disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Here we presented a successful pregnancy obtained by in vitro fertilization (IVF) using preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) in one young Romanian carrier couple that already lost mutation(s) within the TNN gene and whose first baby passed away due to multiple complications. It was delivered via emergency C-section at 36 weeks and fully dependent on artificial ventilation for a couple of months, weighing 2200 g and an APGAR score of 3. The aCGH + SNP analysis revealed an abnormal profile of the first newborn; three areas associated with loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 1 (q25.1-q25.3) of 6115 kb, 5 (p15.2-p15.1) of 2589 kb and 8 (q11.21-q11.23) of 4830 kb, a duplication of 1104 kb on chromosome 10 in the position q11.22, and duplication of 1193 kb on chromosome 16 in the position p11.2p11.1. Subsequently, we proceeded to test the parents and showed that both parents are carriers; confirmed by Sanger and NGS sequencing-father-on Chr2(GRCh37):g.179396832_179396833del-TTN variant c.104509_104510del p.(Leu34837Glufs*12)-exon 358 and mother-on Chr2(GRCh37):g.179479653G>C-TTN variant c.48681C>G p.(Tyr16227*)-exon 260. Their first child died shortly after birth due to multiple organ failures, possessing both parent's mutations; weighing 2200 g at birth and received an APGAR score of 3 following premature delivery via emergency C-section at 36 weeks. Two embryos were obtained following the IVF protocol; one possessed the mother's mutation, and the other had no mutations and was normal (WT). In contrast with the first birth, the second one was uneventful. A healthy female baby weighing 2990 g was delivered by C-section at 38 weeks, receiving an APGAR score of 9.
