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

We have screened 33 ovarian tumours of various grades and stages for the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of markers on chromosome 9. LOH was detected in 26 cases (79%). Eleven tumours (33%) showed LOH of all informative markers. The remaining 15 cases had partial deletions. Of these, six (18%) had losses on 9p only, three (9%) had LOH confined to 9q and six (18%) had losses on both chromosome arms, four of which had a retention of hetereozygosity in between. There was no association between tumour grade stage or histopathology and any losses. High-density deletion mapping was carried out in 12 selected cases that had partial deletions of 9p and/or 9q. The deleted region on 9p included the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2 (CDKN2) locus and one tumour was found to have a homozygous deletion of CDKN2. LOH on 9q extended over a larger region. We found evidence for two regions of deletion on 9q, one at 9q34 and the other encompassing the nevoid basal cell carcinoma (Gorlin) syndrome locus on proximal 9q.
