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

Background: Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is a rare lung abnormality characterized by the formation of cystic or solid masses in lung tissues. To date, the genetic etiology of CPAM has not been well described. The objective of this study is to explore the potential genetic etiology of CPAM through trio-based whole exome sequencing (WES). Methods: We performed WES on 13 fetuses diagnosed with CPAM and their parents. The filtered variants were further analyzed using bioinformatic prediction tools and enrichment analyses. Results: A total of 23 rare variants were identified in 11 fetuses with CPAM, including 3 homozygous mutations and 19 heterozygous mutations. Conclusions: In this study, we provide novel insights into the genetic architecture of CPAM and revealed a multifactorial etiology involving developmental, metabolic, and immune-related mechanisms, which can provide a foundation for future functional studies and genetic counseling in CPAM-affected families.
