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
purposeThe aim of this study was to assess the clinical significance of RUNX3 gene hypermethylation in the pathogenetic mechanisms of breast cancer in women, taking into account its cohypermethylation with the BRCA1 gene.
methodsThis study included 74 women with newly diagnosed breast cancer (samples from female primary breast carcinomas and paired peripheral blood samples) and 62 women without oncological pathology-control group (peripheral blood samples). Epigenetic testing for hypermethylation status studying was performed in all samples on freshly collected material with the addition of a preservative before the storage and DNA isolation.
resultsHypermethylation of the RUNX3 gene promoter region was detected in 71.6% samples of breast cancer tissue and in 35.13% samples of blood. The RUNX3 gene promoter region hypermethylation was significantly higher among breast cancer patients compared to the control group. The frequency of cohypermethylation in RUNX3 and BRCA1 genes was significantly increased in breast cancer tissues compared to the blood of patients.
conclusionA significantly increased frequency of the hypermethylation of the RUNX3 gene promoter region and its cohypermethylation with the BRCA1 gene promoter region was found in tumor tissue and blood samples from patients with breast cancer, in contrast to the control group. The identified differences indicate the importance of further investigations of suppressor genes cohypermethylation in patients with breast cancer. Further large-scale studies are needed to find out whether the detected hypermethylation and cohypermethylation of the RUNX3 gene promoter region will have an impact on the treatment strategy in patients.
