Visualizing Human Colorectal Cancer Intratumor Heterogeneity with Phylogeography.
Review in iScience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Phylogeography combines ancestry with location and can be translated to intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) to visualize how tumors spread. ITH is common in human tumors, with many genetic and phenotypic differences between regions. The roles of ITH in progression are uncertain because many subclones lack discernable driver mutations. ITH can be visualized by mapping mutations onto microscopic sections, where subclones are directly associated with phenotypes, especially the deeper areas with the more invasive cells that confer worst clinical outcomes. Instead of a stepwise hierarchy where subclones segregate by phenotype with later branching subclones in more invasive areas, multiple subclones share superficial and invasive phenotype and are jigsaw arrayed in vertical columns. Phylogeography shows that both early and late subclones extend from the surface to the invasive front, suggesting that founder cells start with phenotypic plasticity and essentially all the drivers necessary to rapidly grow into large invasive tumors.
