Non-genetic diagnostic investigations in monogenic Ehlers-Danlos syndromes.

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
With increased application of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) in the diagnosis of monogenic Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, there is an increased probability to identify variants of unknown significance. Additionally, in some cases no genetic alteration may be identified whilst there is a strong clinical suspicion on a monogenic EDS type. The diagnostic value of non-genetic investigations, which prior to NGS were quite commonly used to support the clinical diagnosis of monogenic EDS types, is explored. In addition, new structural/functional investigations that could deliver evidence towards pathogenicity are discussed. It appears that certain functional and/or structural investigations used frequently in the past can remain helpful and can provide additional evidence that may confirm a clinical diagnosis of a monogenic EDS type. However, there is a need for the development of novel structural/functional studies for monogenic types of EDS. The level of evidence of such studies for application in the established diagnostic DNA variant classification criteria remains to be determined.
