The Importance of Distinguishing Sporadic Cancers from Those Related to Cancer Predisposing Germline Mutations.
Article in The oncologist, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Choosing the optimal therapy for a patient's cancer has long been based on whether the cancer demonstrates a predictive marker of efficacy. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has now approved use of a targeted therapy based solely on tumor molecular markers (pembrolizumab for tumors with deficient mismatch repair [MMR] and high microsatellite instability [MSI]) and approved another therapy based solely on a germline mutation as the predictive marker of benefit (olaparib for
