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

Copy number alterations (CNAs) are a frequent feature in human breast cancer, and one of the hallmarks of genomic instability. The FOSL1, GSTP1 and CCND1 genes are located at 11q13, a cytoband commonly affected by CNA in breast cancer, with relevant function in progression and invasion. Our main goal was to analyze CNAs of these genes and determine their association with breast cancer subtypes. Seventy-three cases of invasive breast tumors [52 Luminal, 7 HER2+ and 14 triple negative (TNBC) subtypes] were analyzed by TaqMan assays. CNAs were observed for all genes, with gains more frequently observed. Gains of the FOSL1 gene were observed in 71% of the cases. This gene was the only one with a statistically significant difference (p<0.001) among tumor subtypes, with increased copy number in TNBC compared to luminal and HER2+. No significant association of CNA and clinical and histopathological parameters from the patients was observed. Additional studies in larger breast cancer patient cohorts based on more refined molecular subtypes are necessary to confirm the observed association of FOSL1 gain with aggressive breast tumors phenotypes.
