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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsNewborn screening (NBS) for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency by biochemical tests is being used worldwide, however, the outcomes arising from combined genetic and biochemical tests have not been evaluated. This research aimed to evaluate the outcomes of application of combined genetic and biochemical NBS for G6PD deficiency and to investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics, variant spectrum, and genotype-phenotype correlation of G6PD deficiency in China.

methodsA population-based cohort of 29,601 newborns were prospectively recruited from eight NBS centers in China between February 21 and December 30, 2021. Biochemical and genetic NBS was conducted simultaneously.

resultsThe overall prevalence of G6PD deficiency was 1.12% (1.86% for male, and 0.33% for female; 1.94% for South China and 0.08% for North China). Genetic NBS identified 10 male patients undetected by biochemical NBS. The overall positive predictive values (PPVs) of biochemical and genetic NBS were 79.95% and 47.57%, respectively. A total of 15 variants were identified, with the six most common variants being c.1388G > A, c.1376G > T, c.95A > G, c.871G > A, c.1024C > T and c.392G > T (94.2%). The activity of G6PD was correlated with the type and WHO classification of variants.

conclusionThis study highlighted that combined screening could enhance the efficiency of current NBS for diagnosing G6PD deficiency. The prevalence, variant spectrum and allele frequency of G6PD deficiency vary across different regions. Our data provide valuable references for clinical practice and optimization of future screening strategies for G6PD deficiency.
