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 discovery of the genetic changes that contribute to cellular neoplastic transformation is one of the major aims in oncological research. Chromosome rearrangements account for a large part of these initiating mutations that, resulting in gene deregulation, are the main target of molecular cytogenetics. Cytogenetics, based in reasoned genomic and biological questions and supported by the development of new biotechnological tools, is a powerful discipline that is continuously generating pieces of information that have immediate translation as reagents for diagnosis and useful research data. The present review presents a summary of the major cytogenetic findings that already have a clear role in clinical oncology because of their use as diagnostic markers, as indicators of molecular therapy suitability or both. We also present an updated description of the molecular cytogenetics tools that have included genomic advances in their most recent releases: multicolour fluorescence in situ hybridisation methods (e.g. SKY karyotyping) and array-based comparative genomic hybridisation (arrayCGH).
