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

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a hereditary tumor syndrome characterized by endocrine tumors, typically from parathyroid, pancreatic, or anterior pituitary origin. In addition, benign cutaneous soft tissue tumors are prevalent in MEN1 patients. Although sarcomas have been reported in MEN1 patients it is unclear if these tumors should be considered as part of the MEN1 syndrome. Here, five patients with a MEN1 syndrome and a sarcoma are described. In all five sarcomas loss of heterozygosity of the MEN1 gene and loss of expression of menin are shown, suggesting that sarcomas may be a phenotypic expression of MEN1 syndrome.
