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

backgroundGallbladder cancer (GBC) is often diagnosed at an advanced stage with limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. The five-year survival rate of this cancer when diagnosed at an advanced stage is below 5%, and the median survival time is less than a year with standard gemcitabine-based chemotherapy. Survival benefit with second-line treatment is unknown. Thus, there is an urgent need for novel treatment strategies and targeted therapy based on next generation sequencing (NGS) may be of value.

methodsComprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) was performed with NGS panel on paraffin-embedded tumors from a cohort of 108 Chinese and 107 US GBC patients. Clinical data were collected using an IRB approved protocol from a single-center in US and from China.

resultsIn Chinese and US GBC cohorts, an average of 6.4

conclusionsIn our study, over 83% Chinese and 68% US GBC patients had actionable alterations that could potentially guide and influence personalized treatment options. The identification of high TMB,
