Serrated adenomas with a BRAF mutation in a young patient with familial adenomatous polyposis.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionFamilial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is typically characterized by more than hundred adenomatous polyps in the colorectum, caused by germline APC mutation. A small proportion of the polyps progress to colorectal adenocarcinoma via adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Serrated lesions and polyps, characterized by a serrated architecture of the epithelium, are noted for two types of genetic pathways in colorectal carcinogenesis. BRAF and KRAS mutations are observed in the serrated pathway. CASE REPORT: We report a young FAP patient with rectal serrated adenomas that were removed by colonoscopic procedures. The histological features with villiform projections and slit-like serration indicated traditional serrated adenoma. A genetic examination with next-generation sequencing showed a somatic BRAF mutation in the serrated adenoma and APC mutations in the tubular adenomas. His germline mutation was found at APC p.Q1928fs*.
conclusionSerrated adenomas with dual genetic alterations in a FAP patient may be associated with colorectal carcinogenesis and should be considered a target lesion for treatment. The present study demonstrated the malignant potential of serrated adenoma in a FAP patient.
