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

Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) is a cancer predisposition syndrome caused by germline TP53 mutations. LFS is typically inherited but can also arise de novo. In children with LFS, the most common malignancies are adrenocortical carcinomas, brain tumors, and soft tissue sarcomas. Herein, we present a 5.5-year-old girl with a novel TP53 germline mutation (NM_000546.4, c.132_147dup; p.Ile50Alafs*7) associated with an unusual and aggressive oncologic phenotype in the context of LFS. Over five years, the patient successively developed undifferentiated sarcoma, Burkitt lymphoma and extra-skeletal osteosarcoma. There was no family history of LFS, but the proband's mother had died shortly after her pregnancy from a gestational choriocarcinoma caused by the same TP53 mutation as the proband. We present the first case of a TP53 mutation from non-carrier parents affecting both mother and child to date. We describe the pathogenic variant and the possible mechanism underlying the co-occurrence of the proband's LFS and her mother's gestational choriocarcinoma.
