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

Genetic alterations in the early stages of cancer have a close correlation with tumor initiation and potentially activate downstream pathways implicated in tumor progression; however, the method of initiation in sporadic neoplasias is largely unknown. In this study, whole-genome microarray-comparative genomic hybridization was performed to identify the early genetic alterations that define the prognosis of patients with stage I squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung. The most striking finding was the high frequency of copy number losses and hemizygous deletions on chromosome 8p, which occurred in 94.7% (18/19) and 63.2% (12/19) of the cases, respectively, with a delineated minimal common region of 8p21.1-p23.3. More specifically, three loci of homozygous deletions at 8p23.1 were noted in 21.1% (4/19) of the cases. This region contains the following possible target genes, which have previously not been implicated to play a pathogenic role in stage I SCCs
