Whole-exome sequencing for the genetic diagnosis of early-onset high myopia and associated hereditary eye disorders.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2026. 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
backgroundIdentification of genetic variations associated with early-onset high myopia (eoHM) provides a genetic basis for risk assessment and prevention of this disease.
methodsWhole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on 41 probands with eoHM with or without other abnormalities.
resultsSixteen high myopia-associated variants identified in 13 probands involved 13 genes comprising 11 autosomal dominant and 2 X-linked genes. The frequency of variants in SNRNP200, ARR3, and COL2A1 was 13%, which was slightly greater than that of other genes. A total of 46% were associated with inherited retinal diseases documented in the RetNet database. According to the relevant guidelines and standards, 9.7%(4/41) of the probands had suspected genetic pathogenic variations through combined clinical-genetic assessment (ID2,3,8,11). Interestingly, we found that the genetic diagnosis rate was significantly correlated with the specific clinical phenotypic characteristics of the patients. The diagnosis rate of patients with ultrahigh myopia was significantly greater than that of patients with high myopia.
conclusionsGenetic analysis identified the pathogenic factors of many cases of eoHM, revealing a strong association between eoHM candidate genes and hereditary retinal diseases. EoHM is the predominant clinical presentation in most hereditary ocular diseases.
