Review in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Telomeres from most eukaryotes are composed of repeats of guanine-rich sequences whose main function is to preserve the end of the chromosomes. Telomeres are synthesised by a reverse transcriptase enzyme, telomerase (TERT), which forms part of a ribonucleoprotein complex containing also a RNA template molecule (TERC) and dyskerin. Exhaustion of telomeres during cell divisions triggers a DNA damage response that induces a senescence phenotype. The DNA damage machinery plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity of the genome and also detecting telomere shortening. However in some syndromes that involved mutations either in the telomerase complex genes or those involved in maintaining DNA secondary structure, such as the recQ helicase WRN, a higher frequency in the development of different types of malignancies is observed. We here describe the biology of some of these diseases, together with the molecular modifications in the telomerase complex genes and the impact of these alterations on the development of particular types of cancer.
