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

Male Breast Cancer (MBC) is a rare and aggressive disease that is associated with genetic factors. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 account for 10% of all MBC cases suggesting that other genetic factors are involved. The aim of the present study is to screen whole BRCA1 and BRCA2 exons using the Ampliseq BRCA panel in Tunisian MBC patients with family history. Furthermore, we performed exome sequencing using the TruSight One sequencing panel on an early onset BRCA negative patient. We showed that among the 6 MBC patients, only one (MBC-F1) harbored a novel frameshift mutation in exon 2 of the BRCA2 gene (c.17-20delAAGA, p.Lys6Xfs) resulting in a short BRCA2 protein of only 6 amino-acids. We selected 9 rare variants after applying several filter steps on the exome sequencing data. Among these variants, and based on their role in breast carcinogenesis, we retained 6 candidate genes (MSH5, DCC, ERBB3, NOTCH3, DIAPH1, and DNAH11). Further studies are needed to confirm the association of the selected genes with family MBC.
