Prevalence and Nationality Distribution of Known and Novel Genetic Variants in Children With Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in the State of Qatar.
Article in Clinical genetics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic disease caused by variants affecting more than 50 cilia genes. We report the prevalence and distribution of all known and novel variants in children with PCD in Qatar. The cohort included 28 children: 16 Qatari, 3 Egyptian, 2 Tunisian, 1 Sudanese, 1 Algerian, 1 Pakistani, 2 Iranian, and 2 Indian. Consanguinity rate was 82.1%. Median age at diagnosis was 7.5 years (IQR: 0.6-11.8). Situs inversus was present in 7 (25%) patients, chronic cough in 25 (89.3%), chronic sinusitis in 17 (60.7%), and bronchiectasis in 16 (61%). Median FEV1 was 71% (IQR: 58%-82%), FVC was 80% (IQR: 74%-91%), and FEV1/FVC ratio was 79% (IQR: 68%-84%). The most frequent variant in native Qataris was c.5924+1G>C in DNAH11 (seven patients). Eight novel variants were found in the cohort: c.6565C>T in DNAH11 (two patients); c.368-369del in DNAAF3 (one patient); c.357G>A in DNAFF2 (one patient); c.278G>A in DNAAF2 (one patient); c.1666-9C>G (intronic) in CCDC39 (two patients); c.9105+2T>C (splice donor) in DNAH5 (two patients); c.8647+3A>G (intronic) in DNAH5 (two patients); c.916G>T in ODAD4 gene (two patients). Wide genetic variation was found among PCD children in Qatar, including several novel variants, reflecting their ethnic diversity. Genetic variation was less among native Qatari patients due to high consanguinity.
