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

Traditional carrier screening has been utilized for the detection of carriers of genetic disorders. Since a comprehensive assessment of the carrier frequencies of recessive conditions in the Southern Chinese population is not yet available, we performed a secondary analysis on the spectrum and carrier status for 315 genes causing autosomal recessive disorders in 1543 Southern Chinese individuals with next-generation sequencing data, 1116 with exome sequencing and 427 with genome sequencing data. Our data revealed that 1 in 2 people (47.8% of the population) was a carrier for one or more recessive conditions, and 1 in 12 individuals (8.30% of the population) was a carrier for treatable inherited conditions. In alignment with current American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) pan-ethnic carrier recommendations, 1 in 26 individuals were identified as carriers of cystic fibrosis, thalassemia, and spinal muscular atrophy in the Southern Chinese population. When the >1% expanded carrier screening rate recommendation by ACOG was used, 11 diseases were found to meet the criteria in the Southern Chinese population. Approximately 1 in 3 individuals (35.5% of the population) were carriers of these 11 conditions. If the 1 in 200 carrier frequency threshold is used, and additional seven genes would meet the criteria, and 2 in 5 individuals (38.7% of the population) would be detected as a carrier. This study provides a comprehensive catalogue of the carrier spectrum and frequency in the Southern Chinese population and can serve as a reference for careful evaluation of the conditions to be included in expanded carrier screening for Southern Chinese people.
