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

Normal tissue radiosensitivity is thought to be influenced by an individual's genetic background. However, the specific genetic variants underlying the risk of late skin reactions following radiotherapy for breast cancer remain elusive. To unravel the genetic basis for radiation-induced late skin toxicity, we carried out targeted next-generation sequencing of germline DNA samples from 48 breast cancer patients with extreme late skin toxicity phenotypes, consisting of 24 cases with grade 2-3 subcutaneous fibrosis and/or grade 2-3 telangiectasia (LENT-SOMA scales) and 24 controls with grade 0 fibrosis and grade 0 telangiectasia. In this exploratory study, a total of five single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) located in three genes (TP53, ERCC2, and LIG1) reached nominal levels of statistical significance (
