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

We have previously reported high-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and germ-line mismatch repair gene mutation in patients with unusually young onset of high-grade glioma. Some of these patients developed metachronous MSI-H colorectal cancer and conformed to the diagnosis of Turcot's syndrome. Frameshift mutation of TGFbetaRII was present in all the colorectal carcinomas but not in brain tumours. We further characterized the genetic pathways of tumour evolution in these metachronous gliomas and colorectal carcinomas. All MSI-H glioblastomas had inactivation of both alleles of the p53 gene and showed over-expression of the p53 protein while none of the colorectal carcinomas had p53 mutation or protein over-expression. Flow cytometry and comparative genomic hybridization revealed that all glioblastomas were chromosomal unstable with aneuploid DNA content, and with a variable number of chromosomal arm aberrations. In contrast, the colorectal carcinomas had diploid or near-diploid DNA content with few chromosomal arm aberrations. The pattern of chromosomal aberrations in the two organs was different. Loss of 9p was consistently observed in all glioblastomas but not in colorectal carcinomas. Epidermal growth factor receptor amplification was absent in all glioblastomas and colorectal carcinomas. Our results suggest that both the frequency of p53 mutation and its effects differ greatly in the two organs. Following loss of mismatch repair function, p53 inactivation and chromosomal instability are not necessary for development of colorectal carcinoma, but are required for genesis of glioblastoma.
