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

backgroundThe lung cancer mortality rate in Xuanwei city is among the highest in China and adenocarcinoma is the major histological type. Lung cancer has been associated with exposure to indoor smoky coal emissions that contain high levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; however, the pathogenesis of lung cancer has not yet been fully elucidated.

methodsWe performed whole genome sequencing with lung adenocarcinoma and corresponding non-tumor tissue to explore the genomic features of Xuanwei lung cancer. We used the Molecule Annotation System to determine and plot alterations in genes and signaling pathways.

resultsA total of 3 428 060 and 3 416 989 single nucleotide variants were detected in tumor and normal genomes, respectively. After comparison of these two genomes, 977 high-confidence somatic single nucleotide variants were identified. We observed a remarkably high proportion of C·G-A·T transversions. HECTD4, RCBTB2, KLF15, and CACNA1C may be cancer-related genes. Nine copy number variations increased in chromosome 5 and one in chromosome 7. The novel junctions were detected via clustered discordant paired ends and 1955 structural variants were discovered. Among these, we found 44 novel chromosome structural variations. In addition, EGFR and CACNA1C in the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway were mutated or amplified in lung adenocarcinoma tumor tissue.

conclusionWe obtained a comprehensive view of somatic alterations of Xuanwei lung adenocarcinoma. These findings provide insight into the genomic landscape in order to further learn about the progress and development of Xuanwei lung adenocarcinoma.
