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

Pheochromocytomas and abdominal paragangliomas are rare, catecholamine-producing tumors that arise from the chromaffin cells derived from the neural crest. We used comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to screen for copy number changes in 23 pheochromocytomas and 11 abdominal paragangliomas. The pattern of copy number changes was similar between pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas, with the most consistent finding being loss of 1cen-p31, which was detected in 28/34 tumors (82%). Losses were also found on 3q22-25 (41%), 11p (26%), 3p13-14 (24%), 4q (21%), 2q (15%), and 11q22-23 (15%), and gains were detected on 19p (26%), 19q (24%), 17q24-qter (21%), 11cen-q13 (15%), and 16p (15%). Losses of 1p and 3q were detected in the majority of tumors, whereas gains of 19p and q, 17q, and 16p were seen only in tumors with six or more CGH alterations. This progression of genetic events did not correspond with the conversion to a malignant phenotype. CGH alterations involving chromosome 11 were more frequent in the malignant tumors, compared with the benign tumors (9/12 versus 3/16). In summary, we propose that pheochromocytomas and abdominal paragangliomas, which share many clinical features, also have a common genetic origin and that the loss of 1cen-p31 represents an early and important event in tumor development.
