Issues in the Use of Human Tissues to Support Precision Medicine.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Precision medicine is an approach in which the characteristics of patients as well as their diseases are used to identify optimal therapy; it links researchers, patients, health care providers, and clinical laboratories. In precision medicine, specific molecular characteristics of an untreatable cancer can be targeted by specific molecular-based therapy. Access to high-quality human tissues is necessary to determine many characteristics of patients and their diseases (such as targetable molecules). There are ethical issues in using human tissues in precision medicine, including informed consent and confidentiality, optimal utilization, quality of tissues, and minimization of bias. When human tissues are obtained for patient therapy, the bioresource should be a component certified by Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments. For precision medicine to benefit medically underserved populations requires extensive focused research, planning, and resources, some of which are currently unavailable at rural and other sites where care is provided to underserved populations.
