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

Background and Objectives: Owing to their extensive clinical and molecular heterogeneity, hereditary neurologic diseases in adults are difficult to diagnose. The current knowledge about the diagnostic yield and clinical utility of exome sequencing (ES) for neurologic diseases in adults is limited. This observational study assesses the diagnostic value of ES and multigene panel analysis in adult-onset neurologic disorders. Methods: From January 2019 through April 2022, ES-based multigene panel testing was conducted in 1,411 patients with molecularly unexplained neurologic phenotypes at the Ghent University Hospital. Gene panels were developed for ataxia and spasticity, leukoencephalopathy, movement disorders, paroxysmal episodic disorders, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation, progressive myoclonic epilepsy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Single nucleotide variants, small indels, and copy number variants were analyzed. Across all panels, our analysis covered a total of 725 genes associated with Mendelian inheritance. Results: A molecular diagnosis was established in 10% of the cases (144 of 1,411) representing 71 different monogenic disorders. The diagnostic yield depended significantly on the presenting phenotype with the highest yield seen in patients with ataxia or spastic paraparesis (19%). Most of the established diagnoses comprised disorders with an autosomal dominant inheritance (62%), and the most frequently mutated genes were Discussion: ES and multigene panel testing is a powerful and efficient tool to diagnose patients with unexplained, adult-onset neurologic disorders.
