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

Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive human disease characterized by genetic instability, radiosensitivity, immunodeficiency and cancer predisposition, because of mutation in both alleles of the ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia mutated) gene. The role of Atm heterozygosity in cancer susceptibility is controversial, in both human and mouse. Earlier studies identified deletions near the Atm gene on mouse chromosome 9 in radiation-induced lymphomas from p53 heterozygous mice. To determine whether Atm was the target of these deletions, Atm heterozygous as well as Atm/P53 double heterozygous mice were treated with ionizing radiation. There were no significant differences in tumor latency, progression and lifespan after gamma-radiation in Atm heterozygous mice compared with their wild-type control counterparts. Deletions were found on chromosome 9 near the Atm locus in radiation-induced tumors, but in 50% of the cases the deletion included the knockout allele, and the expression of Atm was maintained in the tumors indicating that loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 9 is not driven by Atm, but by an alternative tumor suppressor gene located near Atm on this chromosome. We conclude that Atm heterozygosity does not confer an increase in tumor susceptibility in this context.
