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

CHEK2 gene is known as a tumor suppressor gene in breast cancer (BC), which plays a role in DNA repair. The germ line mutations in CEHK2 have been associated with different types of cancer. The present study was aimed at studying the association between CHEK2 mutations and BC. Peripheral blood was collected from patients into a test tube containing EDTA, and DNA was extracted from blood samples. Then, we analyzed mutations including 1100delc, IVS2+1>A, del5395bp, and I157T within CHEK2 gene in patients with BC and 100 normal healthy controls according to PCR-RFLP, allelic specific PCR, and multiplex-PCR. Although IVS2+1G>A mutation within CHEK2 gene was found in two BC patients, other defined mutants were not detected. For the first time, we identified CHEK2 IVS2+1G>A mutation, one out of four different CHEK2 alterations in two Iranian BC patients (2%). Also, our results showed that CHEK2 1100elC, del5395bp, and I157T mutations are not associated with genetic susceptibility for BC among Iranian population.
