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

As we learn more about the etiology and cancer risks associated with Lynch syndrome (LS), the phenotypic spectrum of this condition and its genotype-phenotype correlations are being elucidated. We report a patient with past history of multiple cancers including colon and kidney cancer, and recently diagnosed with jejunal adenocarcinoma. The patient had microsatellite instability and immunohistochemistry (MSI/IHC) testing performed on his small bowel cancer in order to evaluate his risk for LS. The MSI/IHC results on his tumor tissue were reported as abnormal and subsequent blood draw revealed the presence of a germline MSH6 mismatch repair gene mutation. This case highlights the phenotypic variability of LS and complications it may present in evaluation for diagnosis and appropriate surveillance and management recommendations. To our knowledge, this is the first report of MSI/IHC being done on small bowel cancer to evaluate for this condition and subsequently confirmed via molecular analysis.
