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

This brief research report summarizes our experience with the molecular differential diagnosis of clinically or pathologically suspected partial hydatidiform moles and discusses practical diagnostic options when economic resources or laboratory infrastructure are limited. We analyzed the genome composition of 68 suspected cases using short tandem repeat genotyping based on quantitative fluorescent PCR and fragmentation analysis. Genetic testing excluded a partial mole in 35 cases (51%) by demonstrating a diploid or monogynic monoandric diploid genome, while in 33 cases (49%) a partial mole was confirmed through identification of diandric triploidy (31 cases) or triandric tetraploidy (2 cases). No instances of digynic triploidy were detected in this cohort. Our findings indicate that, in the absence of access to a DNA laboratory, most suspected partial moles can still be accurately evaluated using ploidy assessment by more widely available methods, such as fluorescent
