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

Rare autosomal recessive diseases are a major cause of mortality and morbidity. They occur more frequently in individuals with consanguineous parents, in which case the pathogenic variants are often located within regions of genetic identity by descent. A well-established and effective way of identifying these "autozygous" genomic regions has been to search for runs of homozygous genotypes in microarray SNP data. However, with the widespread use of whole-genome and exome sequencing in both diagnostic and research settings, it has become desirable to be able to both map autozygous regions and identify the deleterious variants using a single dataset. We have developed AgileMultiIdeogram, an application that can identify and visualize autozygous regions in inbred individuals using exome data as well as microarray SNP genotype data. This application has been successfully used in both research and diagnostic settings to map pathogenic mutations.
