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

purposeVarious ATM (ataxia telangiectasia-mutated) mutations and polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with an increased breast cancer risk. Recent studies have produced contradictory results regarding the association between ATM genetic variants and breast cancer risk. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe common ATM polymorphism 5557G>A (p.D1853N) (rs1801516), previously suggested to be associated with bilateral breast cancer, was analyzed using real-time PCR in 514 unselected patients with breast cancer and 511 age-matched healthy control individuals. DNA was obtained from peripheral blood draw.

resultsThe ATM genotype was weakly associated with the risk for breast cancer (P = 0.04 for the overall test). The odds ratio for women with a heterozygous genotype was 0.70 (95% CI, 0.52-0.94) and for the homozygous variant 0.63 (95% CI, 0.27-1.49). Disease-free survival and overall survival showed no significant association with specific genotypes.

conclusionsThe results of this study might suggest a minor association between polymorphism 5557G>A and a reduced risk of breast cancer.
