[Value of non-invasive prenatal testing for rare autosomal trisomies in fetuses].
Article in Nan fang yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of Southern Medical University, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 evaluate the value of non-invasive prenatal testing(NIPT)for detecting rare autosomal trisomies in fetuses.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of cases with rare autosomal trisomies detected by NIPT in our hospital from January, 2019 to April, 2023.Invasive prenatal diagnostic tests including chromosome karyotype analysis, chromosome microarray analysis, copy number variation sequencing, and fluorescence in situ hybridization were performed in all the cases after clinical counseling, and their test results and pregnancy outcomes were analyzed.
resultsAmong 25 282 women receiving NIPT, 56(0.22%)were found to have high risks for rare autosomal trisomies in circulating plasma DNA.Trisomy 7 was the most frequently detected trisomy, accounting for 45% of the total cases(25/56), while trisomies 1, 4, 17, and 19 were not detected.Among the 46 cases with genetic results of the fetuses, 10 were identified to have true fetal mosaicism.The overall positive predictive value of NIPT was 22%(10/46)for rare autosomal trisomies, and 10% for trisomy 7(2/20).Of the 52 cases followed up for pregnancy outcomes, 33(63%)cases without fetal mosaicism resulted in normal live births, while 10 had unfavorable outcomes including fetal growth restriction, preterm birth, and maternal complications, and among them fetal growth restriction was the most typical and the earliest condition observed in these cases.Among the 22 followed up cases of non-true mosaicism for trisomy 7, 82% resulted in normal live births.
conclusionNIPT increases the detection rate of true fetal mosaicism but with a low positive predictive value.Most of the cases with non-true mosaicism, particularly trisomy 7, can have favorable outcomes.NIPT can also be useful in identifying causes of fetal growth restriction in the second and third trimesters when invasive prenatal testing does not reveal abnormalities.
