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

objectiveTo examine the clinical application of genomic screening in newborns small for gestational age (SGA), hoping to provide an efficient technique for early discovery of neonatal diseases, which is necessary to elevate survival rates and the quality of life in infants.

methodsTotally 93 full-term SGA newborns were assessed. Dried blood spot (DBS) samples were obtained at 72 h after birth, and tandem mass spectrometry (TMS) and Angel Care genomic screening (GS, using Targeted next generation sequencing) were carried out.

resultsAll 93 subjects were examined by Angel Care GS and TMS. No children showing inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) were detected by TMS, while 2 pediatric cases (2.15%, 2/93) were confirmed as thyroid dyshormonogenesis 6 (TDH6) by Angel Care GS. Additionally, 45 pediatric cases (48.4%) had one or more variants conferring a carrier status for recessive childhood-onset disorders, with 31 genes and 42 variants associated with 26 diseases. The top three gene-related diseases with carrier status were autosomal recessive deafness (DFNB), abnormal thyroid hormone and Krabbe disease.

conclusionsSGA is tightly associated with genetic variation. Molecular Genetic Screening allows early detection of congenital hypothyroidism and may be a potent genomic sequencing technique for screening newborns.
