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

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at several chromosomal loci is a common event in human malignancies. Frequent LOH on the long arm of chromosome 7 has been reported in various human malignancies, and investigators have identified the most common site of LOH as 7q31.1. We have identified ten chromosomal loci, including chromosome 7q, that have been shown by previous allelotype study to be sites of frequent LOH in differentiated adenocarcinoma of the stomach. In the present study, we performed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) microsatellite analysis to define the common deleted region on 7q, using 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers in matched tumour and non-tumour DNAs from 53 patients with primary gastric carcinoma of the differentiated type. LOH at any locus on 7q occurred in 34% (18 out of 53) of the tumours. Although many tumours exhibited total or large interstitial deletions, we determined the smallest common deleted region to be at D7S480 (7q31.1). This is identical to the region identified for other human malignancies. These observations indicate that a putative tumour suppressor gene at 7q31.1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of differentiated adenocarcinoma of the stomach.
