Utilization of polygenic risk scores in drug development protocols.
Synthesis in Pharmacogenomics. 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
The development of polygenic risk scores (PRSs), which make use of genetic testing to assess an individual's risk of developing certain diseases or conditions based on collective genetic variant information, can be applied in drug development to enrich clinical trials or predict response to treatment. From querying documents submitted to the Food & Drug Administration, the landscape of use of PRSs across time shows increased use in guiding clinical trials. Of the clinical trial protocols submitted, most were in the therapeutic areas of neurology, radiology (imaging and diagnostic pharmaceuticals), psychiatry, and oncology. Use of PRSs in clinical trials is most frequent in early drug development (phase 1, phase 1/2, or phase 3) and generally supports secondary or exploratory analyses. Additionally, about half of the protocols developed novel PRSs, and the other half used preexisting PRSs. As researchers, regulators, and clinicians aim to understand the results and implications of PRSs in clinical trials, the continued use of PRSs, despite being less common, reinforces the need for further exploration.
