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

In the present study, recurrent copy number variations (CNVs) from non-tumor blood cell DNAs of Caucasian non-cancer subjects and glioma, myeloma, and colorectal cancer-patients, and Korean non-cancer subjects and hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer patients, were found to reveal for each of the two ethnic cohorts highly significant differences between cancer patients and controls with respect to the number of CN-losses and size-distribution of CN-gains, suggesting the existence of recurrent constitutional CNV-features useful for prediction of predisposition to cancer. Upon identification by machine learning, such CNV-features could extensively discriminate between cancer-patient and control DNAs. When the CNV-features selected from a learning-group of Caucasian or Korean mixed DNAs consisting of both cancer-patient and control DNAs were employed to make predictions on the cancer predisposition of an unseen test group of mixed DNAs, the average prediction accuracy was 93.6% for the Caucasian cohort and 86.5% for the Korean cohort.
