Article in American journal of medical genetics. Part A, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04631237 (Developing a Down Syndrome Health Instrument), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.

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.

Abstract

People with Down syndrome (DS) have a unique medical profile which may impact views of health. We aimed to study the use of global health measures for DS in a national cohort. We prospectively surveyed parents of individuals with DS from the DS-Connect® registry with validated Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)® instruments of global health. Analyses included use of scoring manuals and the PROMIS® scoring service, descriptive statistics, and t-tests. We received completed surveys from 223 parents of individuals with DS; previously published limitations of the instrument in this population were shown again. T-scores differed from the available comparative standardized scores to these measures from PROMIS® reference population on Fatigue (p < 0.001) and Global Health (p < 0.001), but not on Pain Interference (p = 0.41).
