[Lynch syndrome].
Review in Pathologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Patients with Lynch syndrome, one of the most common hereditary tumor predisposition syndromes, harbor an increased risk for a broad spectrum of especially gastrointestinal and gynecological tumors. Causative for the syndrome are variants in DNA mismatch repair genes, which are passed on to the offspring at a 50% chance (autosomal dominant inheritance). The tumor tissue of these patients usually shows microsatellite instability, which is of increasing relevance regarding prognosis and therapeutic decisions. The detection of a causative genetic variant in a patient enables predictive testing of family members to provide relief to noncarriers and provide carriers with intensified risk-adapted surveillance. In addition, chemoprevention with aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) has been proven useful for chemoprevention in studies. Therefore, the diagnosis of Lynch syndrome is important for patients and their relatives.
