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

OBJECTIVE(S): Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Every year, one million new cases are reported worldwide, representing 18% of the total number of cancer in women. Hereditary BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations account for about 60% of inherited breast cancer and are the only known causes of hereditary breast cancer syndrome. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of BRCA2 (exon2 and exon11) gene mutation in patients with early-onset breast cancer among Iranian Azeri-Turkish women. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe obtained clinical information, family history and peripheral blood from 110 women under the age of 45 with early-onset breast cancer for scanning germline mutations in the exon2 and 11 of BRCA2 genes which comprises over 50% of the gene. Single-strand conformation polymorphism assay was used in order for screening potential mutations on amplified regions followed by direct sequencing analysis to determine the genotypes.

resultsOverall, 11 sequence variants were identified in this study group, including four homozygotes and seven heterozygotes silent substitution of c.3807T to C, p.Val1269Val (rs543304).

conclusionMutations in BRCA2 were surprisingly infrequent in the early onset breast cancer patients among Iranian Azeri-Turkish women.
