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

Worldwide, ∼ 74,000 women die from endometrial cancer each year. Understanding the somatic genomic alterations that drive endometrial tumorigenesis may provide new opportunities to identify targeted therapies for specific subsets of patients. Since 2012, the use of next-generation sequencing to decode the mutational landscape of endometrial tumors has not only confirmed prior knowledge of established genetic targets for serous and endometrioid endometrial carcinomas (ECs), but has also uncovered novel significantly mutated genes, referred to herein as novel genetic targets, which represent candidate cancer genes in these tumors. This editorial summarizes the novel genetic targets that have been identified in serous and endometrioid ECs, according to their unifying functional characteristics. An expert opinion section comments on remaining knowledge gaps that will undoubtedly be filled in future genomic studies of endometrial cancer.
