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

KRAS (Kirsten rat sarcoma 2 viral oncogene homolog) is a major predictive marker for anti-epidermal growth factor receptor treatment, and determination of KRAS mutational status is crucial for successful management of colorectal adenocarcinoma. More standardized and accurate methods for testing KRAS mutation, which is vital for therapeutic decision-making, are required. Digital droplet polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) is an advanced digital PCR technology developed to provide absolute quantitation of target DNA. In this study, we validated the clinical performance of ddPCR in determination of KRAS mutational status, and compared ddPCR results with those obtained by Sanger sequencing and peptide nucleic acid-clamping. Of 81 colorectal adenocarcinoma tissue samples, three repeated sets of KRAS
