Incidental Detection of Acute Leukemia During Genetic Evaluation of Neurodevelopmental Disorder in a Pediatric Clinic: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A previously healthy 5-year-old boy presented to pediatric neurology for evaluation of recurrent migraine headaches with associated anxiety. Neurologic imaging was unremarkable, but clinical features consistent with autism spectrum disorder were noted. As part of standard-of-care ASD evaluation, SNP chromosomal microarray (CMA) on peripheral blood revealed a hypodiploid genome (∼35 chromosomes), suspicious for leukemia. Prompt notification led to repeat blood testing showing ∼30% circulating blasts. A diagnosis of acute leukemia was made, and constitutional CMA on buccal DNA showed a normal diploid male karyotype. This case illustrates the potential for ASD genetic testing to yield critical, incidental systemic findings and underscores the importance of rapid follow-up and interdisciplinary care.
