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

aimCancer patients with personal/family histories of pancreatic/breast/ovarian/prostate cancer are associated with a higher likelihood of harboring DNA damage repair (DDR)-related germline mutations. Here, we aimed to obtain a better understanding of DDR-related germline mutations in Japanese pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients with personal and/or family histories of

methodsWe performed next-generation sequencing (NGS) and evaluated germline mutations in nine DDR-related genes (

resultsOf 196 patients with PDAC, 39 (19.9%) fulfilled the criteria for at least one family history of pancreatic/breast/ovarian/prostate cancer in first-degree relatives (sibling-sibling or parent-child) or the personal history of these malignancies. Targeted NGS revealed that four (10.2%) of 39 patients with personal/family histories harbored deleterious germline mutations-two in
