Genome Analysis Using Whole-Exome Sequencing of Non-Syndromic Cleft Lip and/or Palate from Malagasy Trios Identifies Variants Associated with Cilium-Related Pathways and Asian Genetic Ancestry.
Article in Genes, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundOrofacial clefts (OFCs) are common congenital disabilities that can occur as isolated non-syndromic events or as part of Mendelian syndromes. OFC risk factors vary due to differences in regional environmental exposures, genetic variants, and ethnicities. In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding OFCs, due to advances in sequencing and genotyping technologies. Despite these advances, very little is known about the genetic interplay in the Malagasy population.
methodsHere, we performed high-resolution whole-exome sequencing (WES) on non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (nCL/P) trios in the Malagasy population (78 individuals from 26 families (trios)). To integrate the impact of genetic ancestry admixture, we computed both global and local ancestries.
resultsParticipants demonstrated a high percentage of both African and Asian admixture. We identified damaging variants in primary cilium-mediated pathway genes
conclusionOur results from examining the Malagasy genome provide limited support for the hypothesis that germline variants in primary cilia may be risk factors for nCL/P, and outline the importance of integrating local ancestry components better to understand the multi-ethnic impact on nCL/P.
