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

We recently reported that a germline insertion of a single nucleotide in the rat homologue of the human Birt-Hogg-Dubé gene (BHD) gives rise to dominantly inherited cancer in the Nihon rat model. In this study, we constructed transgenic Nihon rats with introduction of a wild-type Bhd gene to ascertain whether suppression of the Nihon phenotype is possible. Rescue from embryonic lethality of mutant homozygotes (Nihon/Nihon) and suppression of renal carcinogenesis in heterozygotes (Nihon/+) were both observed, defining the germline Bhd mutation in the Nihon rat as an embryonal lethal and tumor predisposing mutation. This transgenic rescue system will be useful to analyse Bhd gene function, its relation to tumorigenesis in vivo, and genetic-environmental interactions in carcinogenesis.
