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 examined 142 primary human breast cancers to determine their patterns of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at 19 microsatellite markers over the entire length of chromosome 7. Allelic loss at one or more loci on the short arm of chromosome 7 was observed in 37 of the tumors (26%). We found a new target region of allelic loss on 7p between D7S1802 and D7S817 at 7p14-15. LOH on 7p was found more frequently in tumors of the invasive solid tubular and scirrhous type (31 of 87); 36%) than in other less aggressive types (2 of 27; 7%) (P = 0.0047). The results suggest that inactivation of putative tumor suppressor gene(s) located at 7p14-15 may play a role in the development and/or progression of primary breast cancers, particularly those of the invasive solid tubular and scirrhous type. Allelic loss was also found in 56 of 142 tumors on the long arm, and a commonly deleted region was defined between D7S522 and D7S1801 at 7q31.
