Current Testing Guidelines: A Retrospective Analysis of a Community-Based Hereditary Cancer Program.
Article in Journal of the advanced practitioner in oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
It is estimated that 5% to 10% of all cancers are related to a hereditary cancer syndrome. However, specific cancers, such as pancreatic and ovarian cancers, are related to hereditary cancer syndromes 15% to 20% of the time. Genetic testing guidelines for hereditary cancer syndromes are frequently reviewed and updated by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). The purpose of this retrospective analysis is to identify carriers of pathogenic variants or hereditary cancer syndrome who do not meet NCCN criteria for testing and compare the results with previous studies. The data obtained can be used to provide recommendations to assess current guidelines for testing and evaluate the benefit of comprehensive panel testing vs. standard testing for specific hereditary cancer syndromes. This project is a retrospective review of clinical histories of patients who had multigene panel testing between September 2015 and February 2019 through a cancer outreach and risk assessment (CORA) program. Frequencies analyses were performed to analyze results. A total of 233 individuals were included in the analysis: 171 met
