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

Inherited bleeding disorders are a heterogenous group of conditions characterized by the presence of abnormal bleeding. Currently, the diagnostic odyssey for patients with a suspected bleeding disorder is lengthy, costly, resource intensive, emotionally draining, and often futile, because up to half of patients will remain without a clear diagnosis. Genetic testing has been suggested as a possible remedy for these diagnostic challenges and is increasingly incorporated into clinical care. In this review, we outline 3 factors that contributed to the translation of genetic advances into improved diagnostic outcomes. These include the early success experienced with hemophilia, advances in genetic sequencing technology, and significant investment by the hemostasis scientific community. We also identify 3 areas for improvement to facilitate ongoing translation, highlighting the need to optimize integration of genetic and genomic testing into diagnostic pathways and improve variant classification through ongoing research and curation efforts, and reconsider whether incidental and secondary findings represent a disadvantage or an opportunity.
