Analysis of the impact of noninvasive prenatal testing for trisomies 21 and 18 in twin pregnancies undergoing artificial reproductive technology.

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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance and impact of noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS) on twin pregnancies. PATIENTS AND
methodsTwin pregnancies after artificial reproductive technology(ART) were tested by NIPS for screening trisomy 21, 18, and 13 in a single medical center in Hangzhou. Positive NIPS results were confirmed by karyotyping, while negative results were interviewed after delivery.
resultsFrom January 2019 to December 2020, 474 twin pregnancies were tested by NIPS for screening trisomy 21, 18, and 13 in a single medical center in Hangzhou. The performance of NIPS had been evaluated compared to the invasive diagnostic results. The positive predictive value (PPV) of NIPS for chromosome 21 and 18 aneuploidies is 80% (95CI, 36.09-96.59) and 100%, respectively. The incidence of trisomy 21, and 18 chromosome aneuploidies among the twin pregnancies undergoing ART was 0.84% and 0.21%, respectively.
conclusionThe performance of NIPS was substantially accurate among the twin pregnancies after ART in this study, and NIPS potentially avoided a considerable part of aneuploidies liveborn in twin pregnancies in Hangzhou.
