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

More than 80% of patients who meet clinical criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) do not show pathogenic variants in BRCA1, BRCA2, and other diagnostically consented core genes. We hypothesized that variants in further DNA repair genes, cryptic genomic alterations, or polygenic factors may explain HBOC risk. We studied 134 patients with breast cancer and/or ovarian cancer by the use of whole genome sequencing (WGS), whole transcriptome sequencing (WTS), optical genome mapping (OGM), and mobile element analysis. We identified (likely) pathogenic variants in DNA repair genes in 18 patients, including several RECQ helicase and other DNA repair genes, an intragenic FANCM deletion, and six rare mobile element insertions (MEIs) in DNA repair genes. Incorporating PRS306 shifted estimated lifetime breast cancer risk by ≥5 percentage points in a subset of women (n = 75), including carriers of rare variants in DNA repair genes, resulting in both upward and downward risk estimation.
