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

A subset of B cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is familial. Lack of large families makes it attractive to exploit methods in addition to genetic linkage analysis for the identification of a susceptibility locus. One strategy that can localise regions of the genome that may harbour tumour suppressor genes is to identify regions of chromosomal imbalance using comparative genomic hybridisation (CGH) analysis. We examined 24 familial CLL cases by CGH analysis. Losses that are documented as arising frequently in sporadic CLL were observed at a comparable frequency in familial CLL. However, gains and losses in two regions of the X chromosome - Xp11.2-p21 and Xq21-qter - appear more common in familial CLL than in sporadic CLL. This suggests these regions may harbour a susceptibility locus for CLL. There is also some evidence that chromosome regions 2p12-p14 and 4q11-q21 may harbour predisposition genes.
