Prenatal diagnosis and genetic analysis of small supernumerary marker chromosomes in the eastern chinese han population: A retrospective study of 36 cases.

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
backgroundSmall supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are additional chromosomes with unclear structures and origins, and their correlations with clinical fetal phenotypes remain incompletely understood, which reduces the accuracy of genetic counseling.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of a cohort of 36 cases of sSMCs diagnosed in our center. We performed G-banding and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). The resulting karyotypes were compared with case reports in the literature and various databases including OMIM, DECIPHER, ClinVar, ClinGen, ISCA, DGV, and PubMed.
resultsKaryotype analysis data revealed that 19 out of 36 fetuses were mosaic. Copy number variants (CNVs) analysis results showed that 27 out of 36 fetuses harbored pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants. Among these 27 cases, 11 fetuses carried sex chromosome-related CNVs, including 4 female cases exhibiting Turner syndrome phenotypes and 7 cases showing Y chromosome deletions. In the remaining 16 fetuses with autosomal CNVs, 9 fetuses carried variants associated with Cat eye syndrome, Emanuel syndrome, Tetrasomy 18p, and 15q11-q13 duplication syndrome. Among these, 22 fetuses were terminated, and the remaining 5 fetuses were delivered and developed normally. Additionally, we identified a few variants with unclear pathogenicity.
conclusionCytogenetic analysis is essential for identifying the pathogenicity of sSMCs and increasing the accuracy of genetic counseling.
