Genetic screening in hereditary multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1: absence of a founder effect among Japanese families.
Article in Japanese journal of cancer research : Gann, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ten Japanese families with hereditary multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) were examined. Five DNA polymorphic markers on the long arm of chromosome 11 were analyzed for genetic screening of MEN1 in members of affected families, and disease carriers were identified before clinical manifestations. Unlike MEN1 families in Newfoundland or in Tasmania, no consistent haplotypes were segregated with the disease in the Japanese families when defined by 5 nearby markers. The identification of asymptomatic disease carriers is of substantial clinical importance for early management, genetic counseling and to avoid unnecessary screening for non-disease carriers. However, genetic screening of family members by polymorphic markers could be useful only to each family, and no generally applicable markers were found for Japanese subjects with MEN1.
