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

Heterozygous germline mutations of the tumor-suppressor gene MEN1 are responsible for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1), a dominantly inherited familial cancer syndrome characterized by pituitary, parathyroid, and enteropancreatic tumors. Various mutations have been identified throughout the entire gene region in patients with MEN1 and related disorders. Neither mutation hot spot nor phenotype–genotype correlation has been established in MEN1 although some missense mutations may be specifically associated with a phenotype of familial isolated hyperparathyroidism. The gene product menin has been implicated in multiple roles, including gene transcription, maintenance of genomic integrity, and control of cell division and differentiation. These multiple functions are likely to be conferred by association with multiple protein factors. Occurrence of MEN1-causing missense mutations throughout menin also suggests the requirement of multiple binding factors for its full tumor-suppressive activity. The effect of menin depletion is highly tissue specific, but its underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. A DNA test for MEN1 germline mutations is a useful tool for diagnosis of MEN1 although it needs further improvements
