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.

Abstract

Sporadic Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (sMTC) is a rare but aggressive thyroid tumor. RET and RAS genes are present in about 50%-80% of cases, but most of the remaining cases are still orphan of a genetic driver. We studied the largest series of sMTC by deep sequencing to define the mutational landscape. With this methodology we greatly reduced the number of RET- or RAS-negative cases and we confirmed the central role of RET and RAS mutations. Moreover, we highlighted the bad prognostic role of RET mutations in sMTC and consolidated the favorable prognostic role of RAS mutations. For the first time, we showed that the variant allele frequency represents an additional prognostic marker inside the group of RET-mutated sMTC.
