Germinal mutations among patients with breast cancer in Colombia: is BRCA3 coming?

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
Purpose: Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women and accounts for 25% of all cancers worldwide. The mechanisms by which it develops include germline (generally inherited) and somatic mutations. There are six mutations with the highest incidence in the Colombian population, called the Colombia profile, which is associated with the Methods: This study describes the frequency and type of variants in hereditary cancer genes associated with breast cancer detected by the next-generation sequencing of a panel of 111 hereditary cancer genes, including Results: This analysis allowed the identification of variants associated with breast cancer in 307 patients from a population in southwestern Colombia, of which 19% had pathogenic and probably pathogenic mutations associated with hereditary cancer. According to the variant classification, it was found that the mutation frequency in BRCA1 was 17%, in BRCA2 was 14% and in the Conclusion: In summary, in the Colombian population, there is a great diversity of germline mutations in genes other than
