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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a disease of copy number variants (CNVs), chromosomal translocations, and single-nucleotide variants (SNVs). To enable integrative studies across these diverse mutation types, we developed a capture-based sequencing platform to detect their occurrence in 465 genes altered in MM and used it to sequence 95 primary tumor-normal pairs to a mean depth of 104×. We detected cases of hyperdiploidy (23%), deletions of 1p (8%), 6q (21%), 8p (17%), 14q (16%), 16q (22%), and 17p (4%), and amplification of 1q (19%). We also detected IGH and MYC translocations near expected frequencies and non-silent SNVs in NRAS (24%), KRAS (21%), FAM46C (17%), TP53 (9%), DIS3 (9%), and BRAF (3%). We discovered frequent mutations in IGLL5 (18%) that were mutually exclusive of RAS mutations and associated with increased risk of disease progression (p = 0.03), suggesting that IGLL5 may be a stratifying biomarker. We identified novel IGLL5/IGH translocations in two samples. We subjected 15 of the pairs to ultra-deep sequencing (1259×) and found that although depth correlated with number of mutations detected (p = 0.001), depth past ~300× added little. The platform provides cost-effective genomic analysis for research and may be useful in individualizing treatment decisions in clinical settings.
