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 chromosomal translocation t(8;14) is the hallmark of Burkitt's-lymphoma (BL) and fuses the proto-oncogene c-MYC to the IGH locus. We analyzed the genomic structure of MYC/IGH fusions derived from a large series of 78 patients with t(8;14) and asked (i) whether distinct breakpoint clusters exist within the MYC gene and (ii) whether any pairwise association between particular IGH and MYC breakpoints exist. Identification of such associations will help elucidate the etiology of the breaks on the MYC locus. Scan statistic analyses revealed two distinct, but large clusters within c-MYC containing 60/78 (77%) of the breakpoints. Clusters 1 and 2 were 560 and 779 bp in length within a 4555 bp breakpoint cluster region. Breaks within IGH switch mu and joining region did not differ with respect to their corresponding MYC breakpoints. However, there was a highly significant correlation between breakpoints 5' of MYC cluster 1 and fusions to IGH switch gamma region and breakpoints downstream of MYC cluster 2 and fusions to IGH switch alpha region (chi(2)-test: P<0.005). Chromatin changes governing choice of IGH-Fc region recombination may parallel changes in the MYC gene 5' region chromatin leading to some degree of coordinated ontological specificity in breakpoint location.
