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

Objective: To report the case of a young woman with repeated conception failure, whose karyotype showed an unbalanced complex chromosomal rearrangement involving a large duplication harboring >115 genes and overlapping the 8p23.1 duplication syndrome region. The 8p23.1 duplication syndrome results from a tandem duplication on the short arm of chromosome 8 containing the 4 genes ( Design: Case report and review of the literature. Setting: American University of Beirut Medical Center, department of Pathology and Laboratory medicine.Patient(s): Young woman referred to the genetic clinics for the workup of secondary idiopathic infertility with multiple unsuccessful inseminations and in vitro fertilizations. Interventions: Peripheral blood karyotype analysis from the patient and her parents. Elucidation of the CCR required whole chromosome painting Fluorescent in Situ Hybridization and Chromosomal Microarray. Main outcome measures: The few published reports on 8p23.1 duplication syndrome (<50 cases) describing carriers reveal a wide range of phenotypic consequences with heterogeneous severity. The main outcome is to further understand this syndrome. Results: Chromosomal microarray analysis detected a large (12Mb) pathogenic Copy Number Variant (CNV) at 8p23.3p23.1, overlapping the 8p23.1 duplication syndrome region. This CNV, classified as pathogenic, was shown to carry little significance in our patient. Conclusions: 8p23.1 duplication syndrome display a variable expressivity, ranging from overt syndromic features to minimal effect on the phenotype as shown in this case. Interpretation of prenatal detection of 8p23.1 duplication especially in preimplantation diagnosis is thus challenging. Nevertheless, this case emphasizes the importance of genetic testing in infertile patients displaying a normal phenotype.
