Duplication of chromosome segment 12q13-15 in a lipomatous tumor with minimal nuclear atypia: A case report.

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.
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
Ordinary lipoma is cytogenetically characterized by structural rearrangements, particularly translocations, of 12q13-15. By contrast, atypical lipomatous tumors exhibit supernumerary ring or giant marker chromosomes that are composed mainly of amplified material from the 12q13-15 chromosome segment. The present study describes the cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic findings from a lipomatous tumor with minimal nuclear atypia that was identified in a 49-year-old female patient. Magnetic resonance imaging of the right shoulder revealed a 13-cm fatty mass in the subcutaneous layer that possessed only pencil-line septa. Contrast-enhanced fat-suppressed T1-weighted images demonstrated faint enhancement. A marginal excision was performed. Histologically, the tumor was composed of lobules that consisted of mature adipocytes separated by thin fibrous septa. There was minimal nuclear atypia in certain cells, and a small number of binucleated cells were also observed within the tumor. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells did not reveal the expression of murine double-minute 2 (MDM2). Cytogenetic analysis revealed a complex karyotype with several numerical and structural alterations, including 12q rearrangements. Spectral karyotyping demonstrated a duplication of chromosome segment 12q13-15. Interphase fluorescence
