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

Intellectual disability (ID) has a prevalence of ~2-3% in the general population, having a large societal impact. The underlying cause of ID is largely of genetic origin; however, identifying this genetic cause has in the past often led to long diagnostic Odysseys. Over the past decades, improvements in genetic diagnostic technologies and strategies have led to these causes being more and more detectable: from cytogenetic analysis in 1959, we moved in the first decade of the 21st century from genomic microarrays with a diagnostic yield of ~20% to next-generation sequencing platforms with a yield of up to 60%. In this review, we discuss these various developments, as well as their associated challenges and implications for the field of ID, which highlight the revolutionizing shift in clinical practice from a phenotype-first into genotype-first approach.
