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

Optical genome mapping (OGM) offers high consistency in simultaneously detecting structural and copy number variants. This study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and potential applications of OGM in preconception genetic counseling. Herein, 74 samples from 37 families were included, and their results of OGM were compared to conventional methods, namely karyotyping (KT) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), which identified 27 variants across 16 positive families. Notably, OGM achieved a concordance rate of 94.7% and 100% with KT and CMA, respectively, presenting an overall concordance of 96.3%, as it missed detecting a centromeric translocation. Additionally, OGM detected two cryptic balanced translocations and a small deletion in three families that were missed by conventional methods, improving the diagnostic rate by 5.4%, along with assisting in the diagnoses of six families (16.2%) by identifying complex rearrangements and confirming cryptic translocations. The combination of KT with OGM yielded the highest diagnostic rate in all families. Overall, the findings of this study present the notable potential of OGM for its application, combined with KT per requirement, in clinical settings to improve the efficiency and accuracy of diagnoses and rapid screening of individuals seeking preconception genetic counseling.
