Review in Cancer discovery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

abstractThirty years ago, the cloning of the first breast cancer susceptibility gene, BRCA1, marked a milestone in our understanding of hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. This discovery initiated extensive research into DNA repair mechanisms, BRCA1-associated tumorigenesis, and therapeutic interventions. Despite these advances, critical questions remain unanswered, such as the evolution of BRCA1-associated tumors and their tissue specificity. These issues hinder the development of effective treatment and prevention strategies, which ultimately aim to improve the quality of life for BRCA1 mutation carriers. In this review, we discuss current knowledge, identify existing gaps, and suggest possible avenues to tackle these challenges.
