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

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a familial cancer syndrome inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Various heterozygous germline mutations of the responsible gene, MEN1, have been identified within its exons in many, but not all, affected individuals. We here demonstrate, by DNA polymorphism analysis and gene dosage analysis with polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a large heterozygous germline MEN1 deletion in a kindred with MEN1, in whom no mutation could be detected in the PCR-amplified exons. The deletion spanned an at least 7 kb region containing the entire MEN1 gene. These findings indicate that a large germline deletion of the MEN1 gene, which escapes detection in PCR-based sequence analysis, should be considered as a potential cause of MEN1.
