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

introductionAtypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is a rare, often lethal brain tumor of childhood characterized by a complex epigenetic landscape amongst a simple genetic background. Recent molecular studies have defined key biologic events that contribute to tumorigenesis and molecular subtypes of ATRT.

methodsSeminal studies on ATRT are reviewed with an emphasis on molecular pathogenesis and its relevance to novel therapeutics.

resultsIn this review, we summarize the key clinicopathologic and molecular features of ATRT, completed and ongoing clinical trials and outline the translational potential of novel insights into the molecular pathogenesis of this tumor.

conclusionsSMARCB1 loss is the key genetic event in ATRT pathogenesis that leads to widespread epigenetic dysregulation and loss of lineage-specific enhancers. Current work is defining subtype-specific treatments that target underlying molecular derangements that drive tumorigenesis.
