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

Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN), also known as endometrial atypical hyperplasia (EAH) is believed to be the precursor lesion of endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC). Many genetic factors play important roles in the process of carcinogenesis, however, the key genetic alterations from dysplasia to endometrial cancer remains poorly understood. Germline mutations in Lynch syndrome genes are associated with hereditary endometrial carcinoma. The role of other cancer susceptibility genes is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the genomic alterations of premalignant endometrial lesion and EEC, and to determine the prevalence of cancer predisposition gene mutations in an unselected endometrial carcinoma patient cohort. Here, we applied a comprehensive cancer gene panel (363 cancer-related genes) to capture the exomes of cancer-related genes. Samples were collected from 79 patients with EEC and 36 patients with EIN. Our results demonstrate that EIN harbors most of the driver events reported in EEC and for the first time we reported a high frequency of the amplification of VEGFB gene in endometrial cancer. Moreover, we identified four novel candidate cancer-associated genes (CTCF, ARHGAP35, NF1, and KDR) which may be crucial in the carcinogenesis of EEC. In addition, we identified 2 patients who had a deleterious germline mutation in Lynch syndrome genes (MLH1 and MLH2), and another 8 patients harbored germline mutations of 6 non-Lynch syndrome genes (MUTYH, GALNT12, POLE, MPL, ATM, and ERCC4) which may be associated with endometrial cancer. Larger series will have to be investigated to assess the risks and the proportion of endometrial cancers attributable to other genes.
