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

To date, only one study describes three unrelated cases of neurodevelopmental disorders associated with duplications in 22q13.2, which include the TCF20 gene. In contrast, TCF20 variants and deletions are well characterized. Here, we report six new cases of 22q13.2 gain, including TCF20, identified through array-comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH). Probands exhibited neurodevelopmental delay, and several presented with facial dysmorphism, abnormal growth parameters, and abnormalities affecting the skeletal, respiratory, genitourinary, and/or cardiovascular systems. We documented one 440 Kb triplication and five cases of duplication ranging from 82.5 Kb to 3.03 Mb in size. Co-segregation analysis of the CNV and clinical symptoms supports variable expressivity. However, the complete penetrance of these gains remains questionable compared to the known pathogenic variants and structural variations associated with loss of function. We discuss the genotype-phenotype correlations and hypotheses surrounding the impairment of TCF20 protein function.
