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

Chromosome gains and losses are a frequent feature of human cancers. However, how these aberrations can outweigh the detrimental effects of aneuploidy remains unclear. An initial comparison of existing chromosomal instability (CIN) mouse models suggests that aneuploidy accumulates to low levels in these animals. We therefore developed a novel mouse model that enables unprecedented levels of chromosome missegregation in the adult animal. At the earliest stages of T-cell development, cells with random chromosome gains and/or losses are selected against, but CIN eventually results in the expansion of progenitors with clonal chromosomal imbalances. Clonal selection leads to the development of T-cell lymphomas with stereotypic karyotypes in which chromosome 15, containing the
