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

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to establish the copy number of chromosome 1 in a set of nine breast tumours in which the chromosome had previously been shown to have undergone a variety of rearrangements by loss of heterozygosity studies. In each case, FISH with satellite III DNA from chromosome 1q12 confirmed the results obtained by Southern hybridization. Importantly, in all five cases with rearrangements thought not to involve the centromeric region, FISH showed that the events had not disrupted the gross chromosome structure. This study highlights the potential of using the two techniques together to obtain a clearer picture of both large- and small-scale alterations to chromosomes in solid tumours.
