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

The pathogenesis of lung cancer has not been fully elucidated and biological markers acting as predictors of tumor evolution and aggressiveness remain unidentified. The multi-step hypothesis, suggesting a progression from adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH) to adenocarcinoma (AC) through bronchioalveolar carcinoma (BAC), was highlighted in a previous cytogenetic study performed in a single case. The present study reports the results of an array-comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH) analysis performed on the DNA obtained from the previously reported case that presented AAH, BAC and AC in one lung. The a-CGH results confirm and support the previous cytogenetic observations with new data, clearly supporting the hypothesis of a multi-step carcinogenic process in the lung.
