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

The role of next-generation sequencing from either circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue to identify therapeutically targetable genomic alterations has been well established. Genomic profiling may also have untapped potential as a diagnostic tool in cases in which traditional immunohistochemistry assays cannot establish a clear histologic diagnosis. Expanding the number of histologies with unique genomic signatures or alterations is critical in this setting. Here we describe a case of a 73-year-old man who presented with a duodenal mass extending to the liver and peritoneal carcinomatosis, initially thought to be metastatic duodenal adenocarcinoma. Subsequent genomic profiling of ctDNA and FFPE tissue revealed an
