Molecular Approaches to Diagnosis in Ewing Sarcoma: RT-PCR.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ewing sarcoma is a rare and aggressive tumor that affects children and young adults. Ewing sarcomas are characterized by specific chromosomal translocations that give rise to fusion transcripts that codify for aberrant transcription factors. More than 95% of Ewing sarcoma harbor translocations that produce the fusion of the EWSR1 gene with the transcription factors FLI1 or ERG. This feature can be used to diagnose this entity unambiguously.In this chapter we describe a RT-PCR method that allows for the detection of the most frequent alterations with elevated specificity and sensitivity which is able to distinguish among the different types of fusions. The method is fast and economical, and can be carried out with the conventional equipment available in any molecular biology laboratory.
