1 · What the graph read from itWhat 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 registryThe 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.

6 · The paper itselfAbstract
Copy number variants (CNV) contribute significantly to the pathogenic variation associated with developmental disorders. CNV detection is often not included in standard exome sequencing (ES) analysis. Complementary methods such as chromosomal microarray are typically offered in diagnostic laboratories to diagnose pathogenic CNV. In this study, we aimed to develop an optimal approach for incorporating CNV detection within our ES analysis process for the Deciphering Developmental Disorders in Africa (DDD-Africa) cohort. We analyzed ES data from 505 probands with a developmental disorder, applying a CNV detection approach that assessed data generated using the tools CANOES and XHMM. When available, parental ES data was used to assess inheritance patterns. We confirmed a diagnosis in 42/505 (8,3%) patients with 44 pathogenic CNV identified in the probands. There were 31 deletions and 13 duplications. Among the 27 probands with parental data, all identified CNV were
