Disability, Genetic Counseling, and Medical Education: From Eugenics to Anti-Ableism.
Review in Annual review of genomics and human genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Genetic counselors have a complex relationship with disability communities due to both the legacy of eugenics and their ongoing role counseling families about prenatal testing. Drawing on a social model of disability and highlighting mistaken assumptions about quality of life for people with disabilities, scholars and activists have raised concerns about genetic technologies that strive to eliminate disability. We review the disability rights critique of prenatal screening and emphasize its ongoing relevance to genetic counseling. We then consider disability perspectives on prognostication in genetics and highlight disability-informed critiques of gene therapies. We close by reviewing efforts by, and opportunities within, the genetic counseling profession to center the perspectives of people with disabilities in genetic counseling practice and education.
