Exon 11 homozygous mutations and intron 10/exon 11 junction deletions in the KIT gene are associated with poor prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

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
backgroundGastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) with different types of mutations exhibit different clinical characteristics and prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of mutations in KIT and PDGFRA in a large-scale cohort of GIST patients with current therapy including surgery and imatinib.
methodsA total of 1163 patients diagnosed with GISTs between January 2006 and December 2018 were enrolled in this study. Mutation analysis was performed for exons 9, 11, 13, and 17 of KIT and exons 12 and 18 of PDGFRA. Mutations were grouped into 12 categories according to the gene, exon, and involved codons; they were analyzed considering the clinical characteristics, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) of patients with GISTs.
resultsIn low-risk GISTs, we identified two predictors of worse DFS: tumor origin in the rectum and KIT exon 11 deletion involving two or more codons. In high-risk GISTs treated with R
conclusionLow-incidence mutations such as KIT exon 11 homozygous mutations or intron 10/exon 11 junction deletions in GISTs should be carefully evaluated to explore novel treatment strategies, as tumors with these mutations have a high recurrence rate and a very poor prognosis after surgery followed by imatinib adjuvant treatment.
