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

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common forms of birth defects worldwide, with a prevalence of 1-2% in newborns. CHD is a multifactorial disease partially caused by genetic defects, including chromosomal abnormalities and single gene mutations. Here, we describe the Sidra Cardiac Registry, which includes 52 families and a total of 178 individuals, and investigate the genetic etiology of CHD in Qatar. We reviewed the results of genetic tests conducted in patients as part of their clinical evaluation, including chromosomal testing. We also performed whole exome sequencing (WES) to identify potential causative variants. Sixteen patients with CHD had chromosomal abnormalities that explained their complex CHD phenotype, including six patients with trisomy 21. Moreover, using exome analysis, we identified potential CHD variants in 24 patients, revealing 65 potential variants in 56 genes. Four variants were classified as pathogenic/likely pathogenic based on the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG/AMP) classification; these variants were detected in four patients. This study sheds light on several potential genetic variants contributing to the development of CHD. Additional functional studies are needed to better understand the role of the identified variants in the pathogenesis of CHD.
