Noninvasive prenatal testing for the detection of fetal chromosome 17 microduplication: clinical implications and findings.
Article in Molecular cytogenetics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundNoninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is widely used to screen for fetal aneuploidies. However, there are few reports of using NIPT for screening chromosomal microduplications and microdeletions. This study aimed to investigate the application efficiency of NIPT for detecting chromosomal microduplications.
methodsFour cases of copy number gains on the long arm of chromosome 17 (17q12) were detected using NIPT and further confirmed using copy number variation (CNV) analysis based on chromosome microarray analysis (CMA).
resultsThe prenatal diagnosis CMA results of the three cases showed that the microduplications in 17q12 (ranging from 1.5 to 1.9 Mb) were consistent with the NIPT results. The karyotypic analysis excluded other possible unbalanced rearrangements. The positive predictive value of NIPT for detecting chromosomal 17q12 microduplication was 75.0%.
conclusionsNIPT has a good screening effect on 17q12 syndrome through prenatal diagnosis, therefore it could be considered for screening fetal CNV during the second trimester. With the clinical application of NIPT, invasive prenatal diagnoses could be effectively reduced while also improving the detection rate of fetal CNV.
