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

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET), a heterogenous type of neoplasm with limited treatment options, is relatively rare and to date, the genetic background has remained to be fully elucidated. The present study aimed to determine the mutational landscape of PNET with and without liver metastasis, as well as its clinical application value for treatment. Fresh tumor tissues were collected from 14 patients with PNET following surgery, 4 of whom had developed liver metastasis. Subsequently, targeted next-generation sequencing of 612 cancer-associated genes and comprehensive analysis were performed on the tumor tissues. The results identified 63 somatic mutations in 53 genes in the 14 patients with PNET, amongst which menin 1 was identified as the most recurrently mutated gene. The analysis also identified several novel recurrently mutated genes, including adrenoceptor alpha 2B, ARVCF delta catenin family member, carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 2, aspartate transcarbamylase, and dihydroorotase and neuregulin 1. Among the 53 mutated genes, 11 were enriched in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway (adjusted P=7.12x10
