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

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignancy of bone. The tumours are characterized by high genomic instability, including the occurrence of multiple regions of amplifications and deletions. Chromosome region 17p11.2-p12 is amplified in about 25% of cases. In previous studies, COPS3 and PMP22 have been identified as candidate oncogenes in this region. Considering the complexity and variation of the amplification profiles for this segment, the involvement of additional causative oncogenes is to be expected. The aim of the present investigation is to identify novel candidate oncogenes in 17p11.2-p12. We selected 26 of in total 85 osteosarcoma samples (31%) with amplification events in 17p11.2-p12, using quantitative PCR for 8 marker genes. These were subjected to high-resolution SNP array analysis and subsequent GISTIC analysis to identify the most significantly amplified regions. Two major amplification peaks were found in the 17p11.2-p12 region. Overexpression as a consequence of gene amplification is a major mechanism for oncogene activation in tumours. Therefore, to identify the causative oncogenes, we next determined expression levels of all genes within the two segments using expression array data that could be generated for 20 of the selected samples. We identified 11 genes that were overexpressed through amplification in at least 50% of cases. Nine of these, c17orf39, RICH2, c17orf45, TOP3A, COPS3, SHMT1, PRPSAP2, PMP22, and RASD1, demonstrated a significant association between copy number and expression level. We conclude that these genes, including COPS3 and PMP22, are candidate oncogenes in 17p11.2-p12 of importance in osteosarcoma tumourigenesis.
