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

backgroundThe Clinical Genomics & Genomic Medicine Education subcommittee of the Human Genome Organization (HUGO) reports on the results of an exploratory genomic medicine survey of healthcare providers (clinicians) in low- and middle-income countries.

results281 clinicians from 17 low- and middle-income countries responded to the survey. Representing 20 medical specialties, only 13.6% of clinician respondents are comfortable when discussing genomics in clinical settings. Over 90% of clinicians recognize that genetics and genomics are relevant to their practice and that there needs to be genetics/genomic assessment of patients. Respondents report a wide range of learning style preferences including self-paced online (asynchronous) and live-online educational programming covering introductory content, clinical guidelines for monogenic disorders and when to utilize genetic or genomic testing.

conclusionsClinician respondents recognize the importance of genomics and are eager for continuing medical education. Reponses from the survey suggest that a larger scale, second phase survey should be distributed globally.
