Genetic detection of Chinese hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimTo explore the germline mutations of the two main DNA mismatch repair genes (hMSH2 and hMLH1) between patients with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and suspected (atypical) HNPCC.
methodsGenomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the index patient of each family, and germline mutations of hMSH2 and hMLH1 genes were detected by PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and DNA sequencing techniques.
resultsFor PCR-SSCP analysis, 67% (4/6) abnormal exons mobility in typical group and 33% (2/6) abnormal exons mobility in atypical group were recognized. In direct DNA sequencing, 50% (3/6) mutation of MMR genes in typical group and 33% (2/6) mutation of MMR genes in atypical group were found, and 4/6 (66.67%) and 1/6 (16.67%) mutations of hMSH2 and hMLH1 were identified in typical HNPCC and atypical HNPCC, respectively.
conclusionMutation detection of the patients is of benefit to the analysis of HNPCC and, PCR-SSCP is an effective strategy to detect the mutations of HNPCC equivalent to direct DNA sequence. It seems that there exist more complicated genetic alterations in Chinese HNPCC patients than in Western countries.
