Guidelines for a genetic risk based approach to advising women with a family history of breast cancer. UK Cancer Family Study Group (UKCFSG).

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
A family history of breast cancer has long been recognised as a significant risk factor for breast cancer. Quantifying that risk has been approached in publications and practically in a number of different ways. Increasingly regional genetics departments are called upon to help clarify guidelines for referral of women with a family history of breast cancer for genetic testing and to clarify breast cancer risk for women seeking early mammographic screening. This paper represents the current consensus guidelines from the UK Cancer Family Study Group and discusses some of the difficulties surrounding genetic risk estimation.
