Loss of heterozygosity on the long arm of chromosome 11 in colorectal tumours.
Article in British journal of cancer, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
We have examined a series of human colorectal adenomas, carcinomas and cell lines derived from human colorectal cancer for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 11q22-23 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of a microsatellite polymorphism of the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) locus. LOH was demonstrated in 5/30 (16.7%) adenomas and 23/68 (33.8%) carcinomas. Only 2/20 (10%) cell lines showed homozygosity which could potentially be as a consequence of LOH. This moderate level of loss in the tumour samples was probably not an underestimation as a result of excessive stromal contamination because high rates (68-77%) have been detected in the same samples on chromosomes 17 and 18. In contrast to a previous report, LOH in carcinomas at 11q22-23 occurred at a lower frequency and was not associated with Dukes' stage, degree of differentiation, mucin production or the location of the cancer. However, a significant association was found between LOH on chromosome 11 and chromosome 14. Thus, inactivation of any putative tumour-suppressor gene at 11q22-23 by LOH is not a very common event in the development of colorectal tumours, but may be biologically significant if accompanied by chromosome 14 deletions.
