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

purposeWhile SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex alterations occur in approximately 20% of cancer, the frequency and potential impact on clinical outcomes in meningiomas remains to be comprehensively elucidated.

methodsA large series of 255 meningiomas from a single institution that was enriched for high grade and recurrent lesions was identified. We performed next-generation targeted sequencing of known meningioma driver genes, including NF2, AKT1, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, and SMO and SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex genes, including ARID1A, SMARCA4, and SMARCB1 in all samples. Clinical correlates focused on clinical presentation and patient outcomes are presented.

resultsThe series included 63 grade I meningiomas and 192 high-grade meningiomas, including 173 WHO grade II and 19 WHO grade III. Samples from recurrent surgeries comprised 37.3% of the series. A total of 41.6% meningiomas were from the skull base. NF2, AKT1, PIK3CA, PIK3R1, and SMO were mutated in 40.8, 7.1, 3.5, 3.9, and 2.4% of samples, respectively. ARID1A, SMARCA4, and SMARCB1 mutations were observed in 17.3, 3.5, and 5.1% of samples, respectively. A total of 68.2% of ARID1A-mutant meningiomas harbored a p.Gln1327del in-frame deletion. ARID1A mutations were seen in 19.1% of Grade I, 16.8% of Grade II, and 15.8% of Grade III meningiomas (P = 0.9, Fisher's exact). Median overall survival was 16.3 years (95% CI 10.9, 16.8). With multivariable analysis, the presence of an ARID1A mutation was significantly associated with a 7.421-fold increased hazard of death (P = 0.04).

conclusionARID1A mutations occur with similar frequency between low and high-grade meningiomas, but ARID1A mutations are independently prognostic of worse prognosis beyond clinical and histopathologic features.
