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

In an attempt to integrally investigate the loss of tumor suppressor genes and search for putative suppressor loci associated with tumor occurrence and progression, we conducted a genome-wide loss of hetero zygosity (LOH) study of 83 tumor samples obtained from Chinese patients with sporadic colorectal cancer. We employed 400 fluorescence-labeled microsatellite marker primers to amplify the corresponding loci of the genomic DNA and then electrophoresed the polymerase chain reaction products and analyzed the fluorescent signals. The LOH frequencies were high (>35%) but were not associated with the tumor stage and progression in 20 loci, including the regions where TP53, E-cadherin, deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC), phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), mothers against decapentaplegic, Drosophila, homolog of 2 (MADH2) and mothers against decapentaplegic, Drosophila, homolog of 4 (MADH4) reside. Loss of other loci, including two narrow regions on chromosome 2, was found to relate to the tumor stage, suggesting that this genomic instability may contribute to tumor progression.
