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

objectiveTo report the first tertiary monosomy in a pregnancy loss to a female t(11;22) carrier.

methodsThe patient was a 34-year-old G10P1 female known to have a balanced translocation t(11;22)(q23;q11.2). She had one female livebirth (a translocation carrier) and eight miscarriages. Five female relatives known to be translocation carriers had a history of breast cancer, three of them premenopausally. The patient herself had a malignant melanoma.

resultsDuring the 10th pregnancy, ultrasound showed a viable embryo at 6 weeks of gestation, but loss of embryonic heartbeat by 7.5 weeks. Culture of the products of conception at 8 weeks of gestation showed the karyotype: 46,XY,+2,der(11)t(11;22)(q23;q11.2)mat,-22[4]/45,XY,der(11)t(11;22)(q23;q11.2)mat,-22[4], resulting from fertilization of the maternal 3:1 segregation product containing only the der(11) by a normal gamete. Subsequently, she became pregnant with a normal 46,XX fetus. FISH analysis indicated that the breakpoints on 11q and 22q in the patient were in the previously described region common to typical recurrent t(11;22). In addition, a nested-PCR-based approach showed that they were located within the same palindromic AT-rich sequence previously described.

conclusionThis case demonstrates that the tertiary monosomy resulting from the 3:1 segregation is compatible with embryonic survival into the first trimester. It is also another example of apparent association of the constitutional translocation t(11;22) and breast cancer.
