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

purposeGenetic tumour profiles and radiomic features can be used to complement clinical information in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. Radiogenomics imply the potential to investigate complementarity or interrelations of radiomic and genomic features, and prognostic factors might be determined. The aim of our study was to explore radiogenomics in HNSCC.

methodsFor 20 HNSCC patients treated with primary radiochemotherapy, next-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumour and corresponding normal tissue was performed. In total, 327 genes were investigated by panel sequencing. Radiomic features were extracted from computed tomography data. A hypothesis-driven approach was used for radiogenomic correlations of selected image-based heterogeneity features and well-known driver gene mutations in HNSCC.

resultsThe most frequently mutated driver genes in our cohort were TP53 (involved in cell cycle control), FAT1 (Wnt signalling, cell-cell contacts, migration) and KMT2D (chromatin modification). Radiomic features of heterogeneity did not correlate significantly with somatic mutations in TP53 or KMT2D. However, somatic mutations in FAT1 and smaller primary tumour volumes were associated with reduced radiomic intra-tumour heterogeneity.

conclusionThe landscape of somatic variants in our cohort is well in line with previous reports. An association of somatic mutations in FAT1 with reduced radiomic tumour heterogeneity could potentially elucidate the previously described favourable outcomes of these patients. Larger studies are needed to validate this exploratory data in the future.
