Leaving no patient behind! Expert recommendation in the use of innovative technologies for diagnosing rare diseases.
Review in Orphanet journal of rare diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Genetic diagnosis plays a crucial role in rare diseases, particularly with the increasing availability of emerging and accessible treatments. The International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) has set its primary goal as: "Ensuring that all patients who present with a suspected rare disease receive a diagnosis within one year if their disorder is documented in the medical literature". Despite significant advances in genomic sequencing technologies, more than half of the patients with suspected Mendelian disorders remain undiagnosed. In response, IRDiRC proposes the establishment of "a globally coordinated diagnostic and research pipeline". To help facilitate this, IRDiRC formed the Task Force on Integrating New Technologies for Rare Disease Diagnosis. This multi-stakeholder Task Force aims to provide an overview of the current state of innovative diagnostic technologies for clinicians and researchers, focusing on the patient's diagnostic journey. Herein, we provide an overview of a broad spectrum of emerging diagnostic technologies involving genomics, epigenomics and multi-omics, functional testing and model systems, data sharing, bioinformatics, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), highlighting their advantages, limitations, and the current state of clinical adaption. We provide expert recommendations outlining the stepwise application of these innovative technologies in the diagnostic pathways while considering global differences in accessibility. The importance of FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability) and CARE (Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility, and Ethics) data management is emphasized, along with the need for enhanced and continuing education in medical genomics. We provide a perspective on future technological developments in genome diagnostics and their integration into clinical practice. Lastly, we summarize the challenges related to genomic diversity and accessibility, highlighting the significance of innovative diagnostic technologies, global collaboration, and equitable access to diagnosis and treatment for people living with rare disease.
