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

The prevalence of comorbidities in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) is not well understood, yet these are important for accurate diagnosis and prognosis in routine care and for characterizing the clinical spectrum of NDD syndromes. We thus developed PhenomAD-NDD, an aggregated database containing the comorbid phenotypic data of 51,227 individuals with NDD, all harmonized into Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO), with in total 3,054 unique HPO terms. We demonstrate that almost all congenital anomalies are more prevalent in the NDD population than in the general population, and the NDD baseline prevalence allows for an approximation of the enrichment of symptoms. For example, such analyses of 33 genetic NDDs show that 32% of enriched phenotypes are currently not reported in the clinical synopsis in the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM). PhenomAD-NDD is open to all via a visualization online tool and allows us to determine the enrichment of symptoms in NDD.
