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

Many cancers exhibit chromosomal rearrangements. These rearrangements can be simple with a single balanced fusion preserving the proper complement of genetic information or they can be complex with one or more fusions that distort this balance. A range of technological advances has improved our ability to detect and understand these rearrangements leading to speculation of causal mechanisms including defective DNA double strand break (DSB) repair and faulty DNA replication. A better understanding of these potential cancer-causing mechanisms will lead to novel therapeutic regimes to fight cancer. This review describes the technological advances used to detect simple and complex chromosomal rearrangements, cancers that exhibit these rearrangements, potential mechanisms that rearrange chromosomes and intervention strategies designed to specifically attack fusion gene products and causal DNA repair/synthesis pathways.
