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

Chromosomal aberrations with breakpoints in T-cell receptor (TCR) gene loci are recurrent in several T-cell malignancies. Although the importance of interphase cytogenetics has been extensively shown in B-cell lymphomas, hardly any molecular cytogenetic tools are available for recurrent changes in T-cell disorders. Thus, we have established fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based break-apart assays for the TCRA/D (14q11), TCRB (7q34) and TCRG (7p14) genes and the TCL cluster (14q32). The assays were validated in normal controls as well as in 43 T-cell malignancies with cytogenetically proven 14q11, 7q34-35 or 7p13-21 aberrations. Breakpoints in TCRA/D, TCRB and TCRG could be diagnosed by these assays in 32/33 T-cell neoplasms with chromosome 14q11, 3/6 with 7q34-35 and 1/7 with 7p13-21 alterations, respectively. Application of the new FISH assays to a series of 24 angioimmunoblastic and 12 cutaneous T-cell lymphomas confirmed the cytogenetic evidence of lack of breakpoints in the TCRA/D or TCRB locus. Simultaneous detection of TCRA/D or TCRB breaks was achieved in a multicolor approach, which was further combined with detection of the T-cell-specific CD3 antigen in a multicolor FICTION (Fluorescence Immunophenotyping and Interphase Cytogenetics as a Tool for the Investigation of Neoplasm) assay. These new FISH and FICTION assays provide sensitive, rapid and accurate tools for the diagnosis and biological characterization of T-cell malignancies.
