Using Immunohistochemistry to Expand the Spectrum of Lynch Syndrome-Related Tumors.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The most common genetic and molecular process leading to sporadic colorectal cancer is chromosomal instability. By contrast, mismatch repair deficiency, which results in high levels of microsatellite instability or lack of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression on immunohistochemistry (IHC), is the predominant cancer pathway in patients with Lynch syndrome (LS). Importantly, patients with LS may still develop sporadic tumors through chromosomal instability. Testing tumors with IHC staining helps expand the spectrum of LS-related tumors. In this series, we describe 4 cancers in patients with LS that are not typical of the syndrome. Lack of MMR protein expression on IHC staining confirmed that 2 cancers are related to LS, expanding the spectrum of LS-related tumors, and the presence of MMR protein expression on IHC in the other 2 cases confirmed that they were sporadic and not related to mismatch repair deficiency and, thus, not related to LS.
