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

Background: Lynch syndrome (LS), an autosomal dominant disorder, is characterized by germline pathogenic variants in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes like MSH2. EPCAM deletions cause a minority (3%) of LS cases. However, there are only a few reports of LS-associated endometrial cancer (LS-EC) induced by the inactivation of the MSH2 gene due to EPCAM deletions. Case Presentation: We present the case of a 45-years old woman diagnosed with endometrial cancer (EC). Definitive surgery revealed meso-differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma, stage IA without lymph-vascular space invasion. Four months later, she received radiation therapy ( Conclusion: This case highlights that patients with LS-EC who are carriers of combined EPCAM-MSH2 deletion might experience better oncologic outcomes even with early recurrence.
