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

purposeAmong women in Argentina, the most common cancer is breast cancer (BC) with 21,631 new cases and 6436 deaths per year. The ovarian cancer (OC) is fifteenth in frequency. The contribution of cancer-related large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) of the BRCA1/BRCA2 genes and the 1100delC allelic variant in the CHEK2 gene has not yet been widely studied in our population.

methodsLGRs in the BRCA1/BRCA2 genes and the CHEK2 1100delC variant were analyzed using the MLPA technique in 85 unselected Argentinian BC/OC patients.

resultsA pathogenic genetic variant (PV) was found in eleven out of 85 (12,9%) patients, 10 were LGRs in the BRCA1 gene, 9 deletions and one duplication and one the CHEK2 1100delC. Large deletions of exons 1-2 and 15 in BRCA1 gene were recurrent anomalies in our series.

conclusionsLGRs in the BRCA1 gene contributed significantly to the burden of PVs responsible for the development of BC and OC in our study population. On the other hand, the 1100delC variant in CHEK2 was observed at a very low frequency in our series formed mainly by the Spanish, Italian and Amerindian ethnic groups.
