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

background46,XX complete gonadal dysgenesis (46,XX-CGD) is a rare disorder of sexual development (DSD) characterized by primary amenorrhea and a lack of spontaneous pubertal development in individuals with a 46,XX karyotype despite the presence of female internal and external genitalia due to failure of bilateral ovarian development. The condition is genetically heterogeneous, and in most cases, its etiology is unknown. Determining the genetic cause would provide insights into potential targets for genetic diagnosis and counseling.

methodsTo clarify the molecular mechanisms of 46,XX complete gonadal dysgenesis in the population of China, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on DNA samples from patients with 46,XX-CGD. In silico analysis was conducted to predict the pathogenicity of the variants.

resultsWe recruited 20 patients with 46,XX-CGD and identified 8 variants in 6 genes, including three homozygous variants in MCM9, POF1B, and PSMC3IP; compound heterozygous variants in TWNK; and three heterozygous variants in TP63 and INSRR, from 7 patients. These variants included 3 recurrent variants and 5 novel variants.

conclusionsThis study identified several novel variants, broadening the variant spectrum of 46,XX-CGD. 46,XX-CGD is a genetically heterogeneous condition, and WES is a powerful tool for determining its genetic etiology. The results of this study will aid researchers and clinicians in genetic counseling and suggest that WES is valuable for detecting 46,XX-CGD, which may lead to early interventions for patients.
