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

Rare genetic diseases are a major cause of severe illnesses and deaths in new-borns and infants. Disease manifestation in critically ill children may be atypical or incomplete, making a monogenetic disease difficult to diagnose clinically. Rapid exome or genome ("genomic") sequencing in critically ill children demonstrated profound diagnostic and clinical value, and there is growing evidence that the faster a molecular diagnosis is established in such children, the more likely clinical management is influenced positively. An early molecular diagnosis enables treatment of critically ill children with precision medicine, has the potential to improve patient outcome and leads to healthcare cost savings. In this review, we outline the status quo of rapid genomic sequencing and possible future implications.
