Topological Data Analysis: A New Method to Identify Genetic Alterations in Cancer.
Article in Asia-Pacific journal of oncology nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cancer is the largest health problem worldwide. A number of targeted therapies are currently employed for the treatment of different cancers. Determining the molecular mechanisms that are necessary for cancer development and progression is the most critical step in targeted therapies. Currently, many studies have identified a large number of frequently mutated cancer-associated genes using recurrence-based methods. However, only the cancer-associated mutations with a mutation frequency >15% can be identified by these methods. In other words, they cannot be used to identify driver genes that have low mutation frequency but play a major role in tumorigenesis and development. Thus, there is an urgent need for a method for identifying cancer-associated genes that are not based on recurrence. In a study, recently published in Nature Communications, research team led by Prof. Raúl Rabadán from the Columbia University successfully devised a novel topological data analysis approach to identify low-prevalence cancer-associated gene mutations using expression data from multiple cancers.
