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

Cancer predisposition genes (CPGs) are genes in which inherited mutations confer highly or moderately increased risks of developing cancer. Identification of these genes and understanding the biological mechanisms that underlie them is crucial for the prevention, early diagnosis, and optimized management of cancer. Over the past decades, great efforts have been made to identify CPGs through multiple strategies. However, information on these CPGs and their molecular functions is scattered. To address this issue and provide a comprehensive resource for researchers, we developed the Cancer Predisposition Gene Database (dbCPG, Database URL: http://bioinfo.ahu.edu.cn:8080/dbCPG/index.jsp), the first literature-based gene resource for exploring human CPGs. It contains 827 human (724 protein-coding, 23 non-coding, and 80 unknown type genes), 637 rats, and 658 mouse CPGs. Furthermore, data mining was performed to gain insights into the understanding of the CPGs data, including functional annotation, gene prioritization, network analysis of prioritized genes and overlap analysis across multiple cancer types. A user-friendly web interface with multiple browse, search, and upload functions was also developed to facilitate access to the latest information on CPGs. Taken together, the dbCPG database provides a comprehensive data resource for further studies of cancer predisposition genes.
