Genetic insights into unexplained infant jaundice: a study from northern Guangdong, China.

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
Objective: To explore the genetic factors contributing to unexplained infant jaundice and evaluate the significance of gene screening related to jaundice. Methods: Infants jaundice with unknown etiology attending the neonatology and pediatrics departments of Yuebei People's Hospital from January 2022 to July 2024 were selected as the subjects of this study. The exon regions of 161 jaundice-related genes were detected by targeted capture and high-throughput sequencing technology, and the results were statistically analyzed. Results: A total of 56 infants were included in the study, with 29 cases (51.8%) showing positive results. These cases involved six diseases: Gilbert syndrome in 7 cases (12.5%), sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) deficiency in 8 cases (14.2%), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in 4 cases (7.1%), a combination of Gilbert syndrome and G6PD deficiency in 5 cases (8.9%), citrin deficiency combined with G6PD deficiency in 1 case (1.8%), Dubin-Johnson syndrome combined with Rotor syndrome in 1 case (1.8%), NTCP deficiency combined with G6PD deficiency in 2 cases (3.6%), and NTCP deficiency combined with Gilbert syndrome in 1 case (1.8%). Among the 56 infants, 55 cases (98.2%) had one or more gene mutation sites, with only 1 case (1.8%) showing no mutation sites. The five high-frequency mutation sites were the Conclusion: Genetic factors significantly contribute to the development of infant jaundice of unknown etiology. Common pathogenic genes include the
