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

backgroundThe short arm of chromosome 16 consists of several copy number variants (CNVs) that are crucial in neurodevelopmental disorders; however, incomplete penetrance and diverse phenotypes after birth aggravate the difficulty of prenatal genetic counseling.

methodsWe screened 15,051 pregnant women who underwent prenatal chromosomal microarray analysis between July 2012 and December 2017. Patients with positive array results were divided into four subgroups based on the type of mutation identified on screening (16p13.3, 16p13.11, 16p12.2, and 16p11.2), and the maternal characteristics, prenatal examinations, and postnatal outcomes of different cases were reviewed.

resultsChromosome 16 CNVs were identified in 34 fetuses, including four with 16p13.3 CNVs, 22 with 16p13.11 CNVs, two with 16p12.2 microdeletions, and six with 16p11.2 CNVs. Of the 34 fetuses, 17 delivered without early childhood neurodevelopmental disorders, three developed neurodevelopmental disorders during childhood, and 10 were terminated.

conclusionIncomplete penetrance and variable expressivity make prenatal counseling challenging. Most cases with inherited 16p13.11 microduplication were reported to have normal development in early childhood, and we also report a few cases of de novo 16p CNVs without further neurodevelopmental disorders.
