A universal molecular prognostic score for gastrointestinal tumors.
Article in NPJ genomic medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Colorectal and gastric cancers are a leading cause of cancer deaths in developed countries. Precise estimation of prognosis is important with regard to clinical decision making for individuals with such cancers. We here comprehensively compiled a complete atlas of prognostic genes based on an integrated meta-analysis of one of the largest assembled colorectal cancer cohorts. A simple yet robust machine learning approach was then applied to establish a universal molecular prognostic score (mPS_colon) that relies on the expression status of only 16 genes and which was validated with independent data sets. This score was found to be an independent prognostic indicator in multivariate models including cancer stage, to be valid independent of tumor characteristics or patient ethnicity, and to be also applicable to gastric cancer. We conclude that mPS_colon is a universal prognostic classifier for patients with gastrointestinal cancers and that it should prove informative for optimization of personalized therapy for such patients.
