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

Defective repair of DNA when heterozygous leads to Lynch syndrome (LS) which is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. When homozygous, defective repair of DNA leads to constitutional mismatch repair deficiency syndrome (CMMRD), inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion with a predisposition to develop a pattern of childhood malignancies including hematological and solid cancers. We report such a case of a 21-year-old male who developed anaplastic astrocytoma, Burkitt lymphoma, osteochondroma, and colon cancer successively. Each cancer was treated successfully except for colon cancer which developed liver metastasis after the initial treatment with curative intent. However, the patient has been treated for liver metastasis with curative intent and is currently on follow-up. This case report highlights the importance of maintaining a low threshold for investigating CMMRD and other potential cancer predisposition syndromes when a patient presents with multiple cancers in the early years of their life.
