Importance of multigene panel test in patients with consanguineous marriage and family history of breast cancer.

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
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is used to evaluate hereditary cancer risks of patients worldwide; however, information concerning the germline multigene mutational spectrum among patients with breast cancer (BC) with consanguineous marriage (CM) is limited. Therefore, this prospective study aimed to determine the molecular characteristics of patients with BC who were tested with multigene hereditary cancer predisposition NGS panel and to show the effect of CM on cancer-related genes. Patients with BC with or without CM and family history (FH) of BC treated in our breast center were selected according to The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) criteria for hereditary BC. In these patients, the analysis of a panel of 33 genes involved in hereditary cancer predisposition was performed after genetic counseling by using NGS. The pathogenic variant (PV) and the variant of uncertain significance (VUS) were found to be 15.8 and 47.4%, respectively. PVs were identified in 10/33 genes in 34 patients; 38.2% in BRCA1/2 genes; 6, 24, and 14% in other high, moderate and low-risk genes, respectively. The CM rate was 17.7% among the 215 patients with BC. The PV rate was 13.2% in patients with CM and 16.4% in patients without CM (P=0.80). When PV and VUS were evaluated together, the PV+VUS ratio was significantly higher in patients with CM and FH of BC than patients without CM and FH of BC (88.2 vs. 63.3%, P=0.045). Analysis of multigene panel provided 9.76% additional PVs in moderate/low-risk genes. The PV rate was similar in patients with BC with or without CM. A high PV+VUS ratio in patients with CM and FH of BC suggests that genes whose importance are unknown are likely to be pathogenic genes later.
