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

backgroundWe ought to explore the acquired somatic alterations, shedding light on genetic basis of somatic alterations in NB patients with chemotherapy.

methodsMarrow blood samples from NB patients were collected before treatment, after the 2nd and 4th chemotherapy for baseline research and continuous monitoring by whole exome sequencing. Plasma cell free DNA (cfDNA) was prepared for baseline research. Finger nail cells were extracted as self control. The clinical data was analyzed.

resultsFrom December 2014 to February 2016, 27 cases of children with stage IV NB were diagnosed. The follow up time ranged from 5 to 25 months, with a median follow up time of 17 months, 20 patients were stable, one patient died of pulmonary embolism during surgery, six patients died of disease progression. Marrow blood whole exome sequencing demonstrated that several novel somatic mutations were identified in all three trios comply or against the trendy of tumor size variation. Of note, six recurrent mutations in bromodomain PHD finger transcription factor (BPTF) were identified in nine NB patients under the continuous monitoring. The mutation rates variation was positively correlated to tumor size (CC = 0.428, P = 0.021), and patients with BPTF mutation may have a worse prognosis compared with wild type. Meanwhile, CGREF1, CUX2, GP1BA, SLC45A1 and TRA2A were mutated with the trendy oppose as therapeutic effects. The baseline research in three NB patients demonstrated that mutation rate of BPTF, TMCO3, GPRIN2 and C20orf96 in plasma cfDNA were in positive correlation with bone marrow genomic DNA (P = 0.001).

conclusionsOur study showed that BPTF along with other mutations may function as a biomarker for evaluating to effects of chemotherapy to this refractory tumor, and patients with BPTF mutation might have a worse prognosis.
