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

backgroundEmerging evidence suggests that STK11 mutations may influence clinical outcome and response to immunotherapy in cancer. MATERIALS AND

methodsNext-generation targeted sequencing of STK11 mutation status in a large cohort of 188 meningiomas.

resultsSTK11 loss-of-function mutations were identified in 3.7% of meningiomas. STK11 mutations were found in both low- and high-grade lesions and samples from primary and recurrent disease. There was a 2.8-fold increased risk of death for patients whose meningioma harbored an STK11 mutation, after controlling for lesion grade and occurrence status. The median overall survival for patients with STK11-mutated meningiomas was 4.4 years compared with 16.8 years.

conclusionThese data identify recurrent STK11 mutations in a subset of meningiomas. Genotyping of STK11 is encouraged for meningioma patients undergoing immunotherapy-based therapy.
