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

Background: This study aimed to analyze the pathogenic variants in one family with colorectal cancer and another with endometrial cancer and provide appropriate personalized prevention strategies for carriers of these genetic mutations. Methods: One proband with colorectal cancer and another with endometrial cancer and their family members were enrolled in this study. Whole-exome sequencing was used to identify pathogenic gene mutations in both families. We compared the structural difference between the wild-type and mutant MSH2 proteins using SWISS-MODEL and PyMOL visualization software. Results: We identified one novel mutation (NM_000251.2:c.1486delT:p.L496*) in the Conclusion: The novel stop gain mutant (NM_000251.2:c.1486delT:p.L496*) in
