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

Patients with Muir-Torre syndrome, an autosomal-dominant familial tumor condition caused by germline mutation of the DNA mismatch repair genes, MSH2 or MLH1, present with tumors of the sebaceous gland and visceral malignancies characterized by microsatellite instability. Here we show development of glioblastoma multiforme in a patient with Muir-Torre syndrome. Immunohistochemical analysis of the brain tumor and colon cancer revealed loss of the DNA mismatch repair gene detected by the genetic test, suggesting a pathogenic link.
