[Biobanking and the further development of precision medicine].
Review in Der Pathologe, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundOver the last 15 years, an estimated 3000 large centralized biobanks have been established worldwide, making important contributions to the further development of precision medicine. In many cases, these biobanks are affiliated with pathological institutes or work closely with them.
objectiveIn which translational research projects, and during which phases in the development of new drugs are human bioprobes being used and can their use be easily traced in the literature?
methodsPubMed, Internet research, and information from the German Biobank Alliance and the European initiative BBMRI-ERIC.
resultsHigh-quality biosamples from centralized biobanks are increasingly used in clinical research and development projects. Success stories, where bioprobes have contributed to the further development of precision medicine, are shown in this paper using among others the example of RET gene fusion discovery in lung cancer. Interestingly enough, many key publications in the field of precision medicine do not contain exact references to the biobanks involved.
conclusionsThe importance of centralized biobanks in translational research and clinical development is constantly increasing. However, in order to ensure the acceptance and visibility of biobanks, their participation in success stories of biomedical progress must be systematically documented and published.
