Genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis in disorders of the mitochondrial energy metabolism.
Review in Journal of inherited metabolic disease, 1996. 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
Point mutations in mitochondrial DNA, as found in MELAS, MERRF, NARP and other syndromes, are inherited via the maternal lineage. Genetic counselling can be beneficial, but prenatal diagnosis is not advantageous in these syndromes. Empirical data about the recurrence risk can be applied in Leber disease (LHON). Mitochondrial disorders not associated with a point mutation have a sporadic nature (large deletions/duplications in mitochondrial DNA) or are transmitted according to Mendelian laws. Autosomal dominant inheritance is likely to be found in disorders with depletion of mitochondrial DNA. X-linked mode of inheritance is seen in Menkes disease, Barth syndrome, and in deficiencies of the E1 alpha subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Mutation analysis or linkage studies can be applied for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis in these three types of mitochondriopathies. The majority of the disorders with a disturbed mitochondrial energy metabolism are likely inherited in an autosomal recessive mode. Prenatal diagnosis can be performed in the cases of cytochrome c oxidase and NADH dehydrogenase deficiencies in chorionic villi in selected families.
