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 great majority of growth hormone (GH)-secreting pituitary tumors are sporadic, though a few occur with a familial aggregation, either as a component of multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 (MEN1) or Carney Complex, or when unassociated with other tumors, as isolated familial somatotropinomas (IFS). This report reviews the clinical and genetic information available from the 46 families reported to date with the latter syndrome. In contrast to sporadic tumors, GH-secreting tumors in IFS occur at an earlier age, especially when all affected family members are from a single generation. The IFS gene is believed to be a tumor suppressor gene, based on the presence of loss of heterozygosity. Although the gene still remains to be identified there is strong evidence for linkage to a locus of less than 10 Mb on chromosome 11q13.1-13.3.
