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

Three predisposition genes have been identified for cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), but they account for only ∼25% of melanoma clusters/pedigrees. Linkage analyses of melanoma pedigrees from many countries have failed to identify significant linkage evidence for the remaining predisposition genes that must exist. The Utah linkage analysis approach of using singly informative extended high-risk pedigrees combined with high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers has successfully identified significant linkage evidence for two regions. This is, to our knowledge, the first genome-wide linkage analysis of the extended Utah high-risk CMM pedigrees, and it provides confirmation of linkage for a chromosome 9q region previously reported in Danish pedigrees. This report confirms that linkage analysis for common disorders can be successful in analysis of high-density markers in sets of singly informative high-risk pedigrees.
