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

The standardization of variant curation criteria is essential for accurate interpretation of genetic results and clinical care of patients. The variant curation guidelines developed by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) in 2015 are widely used but are not gene specific. To address this issue, the Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen) Variant Curation Expert Panels (VCEP) have been tasked with developing gene-specific variant curation guidelines. The Glaucoma VCEP was created to develop rule specifications for genes associated with primary glaucoma, including myocilin (MYOC), the most common cause of Mendelian glaucoma. Of the 28 ACMG/AMP criteria, the Glaucoma VCEP adapted 15 rules to MYOC and determined 13 rules not applicable. Key specifications included determining minor allele frequency thresholds, developing an approach to counting probands and segregations, and reviewing functional assays. The rules were piloted on 81 variants and led to a change in classification in 40% of those that were classified in ClinVar, with functional evidence influencing the classification of 18 variants. The standardized variant curation guidelines for MYOC provide a framework for the consistent application of the rules between laboratories, to improve MYOC genetic testing in the management of glaucoma.
