Rare allelic imbalances, but no mutations of the PRDX1 gene in human hepatocellular carcinomas.
Article in Journal of clinical pathology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Allelic losses on chromosome 1p are frequent in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), suggesting the presence of a tumour suppressor gene in this region. The gene for peroxiredoxin 1 (PRDX1), an antioxidant enzyme, has been mapped to 1p34.1. Mice lacking PRDX1 develop HCC with high frequency. Because oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of HCC, this study was designed to determine whether the PRDX1 gene is mutated in human HCC using loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis, polymerase chain reaction/denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, and DNA sequencing. LOH of at least one of four microsatellite markers within 0.8 Mb of the PRDX1 gene was seen in three of 34 informative HCCs, but no mutations or polymorphisms in the translated exons 2-6 of the PRDX1 gene were found. These results suggest that genetic alterations of the PRDX1 locus are rare events in human HCC, indicating that other genes on chromosome 1p contribute to liver carcinogenesis.
