Alterations in the expression of homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes in breast cancer tissues considering germline BRCA1/2 mutation status.

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
introductionHomologous recombination (HR) is a crucial DNA-repair mechanism, and its disruption can lead to the accumulation of mutations that initiate and promote cancer formation. The key HR genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, are particularly significant as their germline pathogenic variants are associated with a hereditary predisposition to breast and/or ovarian cancer. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was performed on 45 FFPE breast cancer tissues obtained from 24 and 21 patients, with and without the germline BRCA1/2 mutation, respectively. The expression of 11 genes: BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, BARD1, FANCA, FANCB, FANCI, RAD50, RAD51D, BRIP1, and CHEK2 was assessed using Custom RT2 PCR Array (Qiagen), and results were analysed using R.
resultsCancer tissues from patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline mutations displayed no significant differences in the expression of the selected HR genes compared to BRCA1 or BRCA2 wild-type cancer tissues. In BRCA1
conclusionsIn cancer tissues harbouring either BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline mutations, no significant differences in expression were observed at the mRNA level of any tested HR genes, except BRCA1. However, the significant differences observed in BRCA1 expression between germline BRCA1
