Aberrant Fetal Brain Sulcus Formation: A Clue to the Diagnosis of Sotos Syndrome.
Article in Prenatal diagnosis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThis study aims to elucidate two distinct fetal ultrasound features associated with aberrant brain sulcus formation as potential prenatal markers for Sotos syndrome caused by mutations in the NSD1 gene.
methodThis retrospective study investigated three fetuses across two pregnancies, including a pair of monochorionic diamniotic twins, all diagnosed with Sotos syndrome via whole exome sequencing (WES). Comprehensive clinical and laboratory data were collected and analyzed. Each fetus underwent a series of specialized neurosonographic assessments to evaluate the development of the cerebral cortex.
resultsAll three fetuses exhibited aberrant brain sulcus formation characterized by Sylvian fissure (SF) abnormalities and shallow parietooccipital sulcus (POS). WES revealed the presence of two de novo NSD1 variants in these fetuses.
conclusionsFetal aberrant brain sulcus formation may represent a distinctive ultrasound feature indicative of Sotos syndrome, thereby offering additional diagnostic insights for the identification of this condition.
