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

Introduction: Precision medicine has traditionally been delivered in specialty settings, limiting access for many patients. Primary care offers a potential entry point for broader delivery of genomic services within primary care, given its central role in longitudinal and preventive care. In this study, we characterize five years of sustained real-world delivery of both diagnostic and preventive genomic services within a family-medicine-embedded multidisciplinary clinic, examining patient population, referral patterns, clinical workflow, and genomic testing yield. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all new patients evaluated in the PCPM clinic at UPMC between November 6, 2019, and April 17, 2024 ( Results: Genetic testing was ordered for 1,174 patients (73%), with 1,360 total tests ordered and an 83.4% completion rate. Panel-based testing accounted for 71% of all tests. Most tests (86%) were ordered for primary referral concerns, while 14% were prompted by incidental indications identified during intake. Clinic growth supported increased access, expanded staffing, and the development of a streamlined two-visit care model. Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that the sustained delivery of diagnostic and preventive genomics within a family medicine embedded multidisciplinary clinic model is feasible, enabling broad genomic evaluation, efficient testing workflows, and clinically meaningful diagnoses across diverse indications, offering a replicable template for health systems seeking to close the genomics access gap.
