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 broad application of high-resolution chromosome detection technology in prenatal diagnosis has identified copy number loss (CNL) involving autosomal dominant (AD) genes in certain fetuses. Exon sequencing of fetuses exhibiting structural anomalies yields diagnostic information in up to 20% of cases. However, there is currently no relevant literature about the genetic origin and pregnancy outcome of CNL involving AD genes in fetuses without structural abnormalities.

resultsThis was a prospective study involving pregnant women who underwent amniocentesis for fetal copy number variation sequencing (CNVseq). Detection of parent-of-origin was suggested in cases of samples with CNL involving AD genes and the pregnancy outcome was monitored. Amniotic fluid samples from 24,844 fetuses without structural abnormalities were successfully tested via CNVseq. The results showed that 134 fetuses (0.5%) had small CNL (< 10 Mb) containing AD genes, after excluding microdeletion and microduplication syndrome and polymorphisms. By monitoring the pregnancy outcomes of the 134 fetuses, we found that 104 (77.6%) were good, 13 (9.7%) were adverse, and 17 (12.7%) pregnant women voluntarily chose to terminate pregnancy. Of the 13 fetuses with adverse pregnancy outcomes, only 2 fetuses had phenotypes consistent with those of diseases caused by AD genes involved in CNL.

conclusionsThe overall prognosis for fetuses without family history or structural abnormalities but with small CNL containing AD genes detected during pregnancy is good. The genetic origin, overlap status of established haploinsufficient gene and/or region, size of the CNL, and genetic mode may affect the pathogenicity of the CNL.
