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

Restriction enzyme digests of genomic DNA show multiple alleles of common, intermediate, and rare frequencies at the minisatellite locus of Ha-ras. It has been suggested that a higher frequency of rare alleles is associated with the presence of colorectal and other types of cancer. This study investigated the distribution of Ha-ras alleles in 40 members of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal carcinoma (HNPCC) families and in 34 cancer free subjects (spouses). There was no difference in rare allele frequency between the cancer group and cancer free group (chi2 = 0.25, not significant).
