Review in Oncotarget, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common sarcomas in humans. Constitutively activating mutations in the KIT or PDGFRA receptor tyrosine kinases are the initiating oncogenic events. Most metastatic GISTs respond dramatically to therapies with KIT/PDGFRA inhibitors. Asymptomatic and mitotically-inactive KIT/PDGFRA-mutant "microGISTs" are found in one third of adults, but most of these small tumors never progress to malignancy, underscoring that a progression of oncogenic mutations is required. Recent studies have identified key genomic abnormalities in GIST progression. Novel insights into the genetic progression of GISTs are shedding new light on therapeutic innovations.
