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

The attenuated form of familial adenomatous polyposis coli (AAPC) is associated with mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene which cluster in the 5' region of the gene. It has been proposed that a 'genotype-phenotype boundary' exists at codons 159-163, and mutations that are 5' of this boundary will produce AAPC. Herein we document a three-generation family with an exon 3 mutation well to the 5' side of the proposed boundary, in which two affected individuals have had, in their 40s, a profuse form of familial adenomatous polyposis coli. We conclude that the codon 159-163 'boundary' is indicative rather than definitive. These two patients also had postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions, severely so in one.
