Prenatal diagnosis of genetic aberrations in fetuses with pulmonary stenosis in southern China: a retrospective analysis.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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 genetic etiology of congenital pulmonary stenosis (PS) in fetuses remains inadequately studied. We used karyotype analysis and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) to investigate the genetic aberrations associated with PS in human fetuses.
methodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 84 fetuses with congenital PS in southern China. Fetal amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood samples were obtained for chromosomal karyotype analysis and CMA.
resultsThe rate of pathogenic copy number variation (CNV) was 15.5% (13/84) after karyotyping and CMA. An abnormal karyotype was detected in five cases (6.0%, 5/84) via karyotyping, whereas pathogenic CNVs were detected in 13 cases (15.5%, 13/84) via CMA. In addition to the five abnormal karyotypes detected using karyotype analysis, eight additional chromosomal microduplications and microdeletions were detected using CMA, comprising three cases of 22q11.21 microdeletion; two cases of 16p11.2 microdeletion; one case of simultaneous 18q23 microdeletion and 22q13.33 microduplication; one case of 15q24.1q24.2 microdeletion; and one case of 1q21.1q21.2 microduplication. The rate of pathogenic CNV occurrence was 11.5% in fetuses with isolated PS and 17.2% in fetuses with PS combined with other ultrasound abnormalities. This difference between the two experimental groups was statistically significant. Among 84 fetuses with PS, 39 pregnancies were terminated, and five were lost to follow-up.
conclusionsCMA was not only conducive to detect PS-related pathogenic genomic abnormalities but also to accurately evaluate fetal prognosis in genetic counseling. The early detection of PS and genomic abnormalities will exerta positive impact on fetal intervention and the related prognosis of PS in perinatal infants.
