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

About half of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancers (HNPCCs) fulfilling the Amsterdam criteria (AC) do not display evidence of mismatch repair defects, and the difference between microsatellite-stable (MSS) and microsatellite-unstable HNPCC remains poorly understood. The study was to compare overall copy number variation (CNV) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the entire genome in HNPCCs with MSS and microsatellite-instability (MSI) using the Cytoscan HD Array. This was a study carried out in samples from 20 patients with MSS HNPCC and four patients with MSI HNPCC from the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (China). The microsatellite status was examined using a panel of microsatellite markers. MMR expression status was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Tumor samples were analyzed with the Genome-Wide Human CytoScan HD Array. CNV and LOH were determined. Fourteen specific CNVs (eight gains: 5p13.1, 7p13, 7q22.3, 8q11.21, 8q12.2, 19q13.11, 20q11.21, and 20q11.23; and six losses: 8p22, 8p23.1, 8p23.1, 17p13.1, 17p13.2, and 18q21.3) were associated with MSS HNPCC. Of these 14 CNVs, gain on 8q12.2 and loss on 17p13.1 were novel. The total length of 8q gains and 20q gains were greater in MSS tumors than in MSI (P < 0.05). The presence of similar levels of copy-neutral-LOH in MSS (31.7%) and MSI (29.7%) HNPCC suggested that unknown DNA repair genes might be involved in the tumorigenesis of MSS HNPCC. MSS HNPCC is a genetically specific population with increased CNV, which are different from MSI HNPCC. The results may help to clarify the genetic basis of MSS HNPCC tumorigenesis.
