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

Tremendous progress has been made in identifying genetic variants associated with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), particularly autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the extensive (and growing) lists of associated genetic variants have led to a bottleneck in understanding the function of these genetic changes. To overcome this, functional genomics approaches-including high-throughput and high-content screens, in vivo Perturb-seq, and multiomics profiling-are being deployed across cellular and animal models at scale. Here, we first discuss recent findings on NDDs gleaned from human genetics studies. We then review recent technological advances and findings from functional neurogenomics in the context of ASD and other NDDs. Finally, we discuss how these methods might be applied in the future to refine efforts to identify convergent mechanisms impacted by multiple disease-associated genetic variants, as well as how they can advance the development of new therapeutic strategies.
