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

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. In this study, a large Chinese pedigree with breast cancer including a proband and two female patients was recruited and a familial history of breast cancer was collected by questionnaire. Clinicopathological assessments and neoadjuvant therapy-related information were obtained for the proband. Blood samples were taken, and gDNA was extracted. The BRCA1/2 and PALB2 genes were screened using next-generation sequencing by a targeted gene panel. We have successfully identified a novel, germline heterozygous, missense mutation of the gene BRCA2: c.7007G>T, p.R2336L, which is likely to be pathogenic in the proband and her elder sister who both had breast cancer. Furthermore, the risk factors for developing breast cancer in this family are discussed. Thus, genetic counselling and long-term follow-up should be provided for this family of breast cancer patients as well as carriers carrying a germline variant of BRCA2: c.7007G>T (p.R2336L).
