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

The data described in this publication supported the development and evaluation of pan-ancestry reproductive carrier screening panels for autosomal recessive (AR) and X-linked (XL) conditions. Raw data included combined sets of DNA variants in 1,350 AR/XL genes obtained from the ClinVar and gnomAD databases. The dataset enabled calculations of positive yield for individuals and couples across both ancestry-specific and pan-ancestry, optimised "Goldilocks"-ranked gene panels, addressing population-specific variations in the frequencies of heterozygous individuals and carrier couples. The positive yield analysis offered a performance metric for carrier screening panels, facilitating the modeling of screening performance for panels of varying sizes and composition and providing resources for optimizing panel content to ensure equity across underrepresented genetic ancestries The dataset can support ongoing research into the equitable application of carrier screening and offers significant reuse potential for refining population genetic screening practices, validating computational models, and developing frameworks to update carrier screening panels in alignment with evolving genomic data, including in underrepresented and minority populations.
