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

backgroundWhen the SRY gene is present in a 46,XX fetus, some degree of testicular development is expected. Our laboratory performed prenatal genetic testing for a fetus that had screened positive for Y chromosome material by noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS) but that had apparently typical female development by ultrasound imaging. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical relevance of the NIPS results.

methodsWe analyzed fetal material obtained via amniocentesis procedure by G-banding, microarray, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Optical genome mapping (OGM) was also performed.

resultsG-band analysis revealed a normal 46,XX karyotype. Microarray and FISH analyses together detected an SRY+ gain of 5.7 Mb from terminal Yp that was translocated to terminal Xq, with a loss of 1.6 Mb from terminal Xq. The final karyotype was 46,X,der(X)t(X;Y)(q28;p11.2). Prenatal ultrasound and postnatal physical examination revealed apparently typical female genitalia. The Xq deletion encompassed a gene, IKBKG, that is sensitive to loss of function, suggesting that preferential inactivation of the derivative X chromosome allowed for typical female development. OGM software did not directly identify this translocation.

conclusionThis case demonstrates how the SRY gene may be present in a 46,XX biological female without differences of sexual development.
