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

purposeThe identification and prognosis of the agenesis of the corpus callosum (ACC) for prenatal consultation are complex and currently unclear. This study aims to explore the correlated genetic mutations of prenatal ACC.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 114 prenatal cases of ACC. All cases (n = 114) were subjected to chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and 66 CMA-negative cases underwent prenatal exome sequencing (pES) for further analysis.

resultsCMA was diagnosed positively in 15/114 (13.2%) cases and pES was diagnosed positively in 24/66 (36.4%) CMA-negative cases. The detection rate of genetic causes between complete and partial ACCs was not significantly different (P > 0.05). Between isolated and non-isolated (other anomalies present) ACCs, the diagnostic rate of pES in non-isolated cases was significantly higher (P < 0.001), while CMA results did not differ (P > 0.05). The diagnostic rate of CMA was significantly increased in cases combined with intracranial and extracranial malformations (P = 0.014), while no CMA positivity was detected in cases combined with only intracranial malformations.

conclusionFor fetuses with prenatal ACC, further pES analysis should be recommended after negative CMA results. Chromosome abnormalities are less likely to occur when ACC with only intracranial malformations combined.
