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

Clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is a rare low-grade malignant salivary gland carcinoma. EWSR1-ATF1 fusion has been characterized as a consistent finding in CCC, with breakpoints described between EWSR1 exon 11 and ATF1 exon 3. So far, over 100 cases of CCC harboring EWSR1 rearrangement arising from salivary gland of the oral cavity have been reported. Although EWSR1 involvement in these cases was confirmed by EWSR1 break-apart FISH indicating the translocation, sequence analysis for EWSR1-ATF1 fusion type has been reported only in three cases of CCC so far. Herein, we report a CCC case with novel EWSR1-ATF1 fusion (EWSR1 exon 15 and ATF1 exon 5) arising in minor salivary gland and review the role of the chimeric variants in some malignancies with EWSR1-ATF1 rearrangement. Current tumor was composed of the small nests of clear tumor cells and hyalized fibrous stroma. Immunohistochemically, the tumor was positive for AE1/AE3, CK5/6 and p63, negative for S100, Melan-A, SMA and CD10. After 8 months of follow-up, there are no evidence of recurrence.
