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

High-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma of gynecologic origin (NEC-GYN) is a highly aggressive cancer that often affects young women. The clinical management of NEC-GYN is typically extrapolated from its counterpart, small cell carcinoma of the lung (SCLC), but, unfortunately, available therapies have limited benefit. In our NEC-GYN cohort, median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 1 and 12 months, respectively, indicating the highly lethal nature of this cancer. Our comprehensive genomic analyses unveiled that NEC-GYN harbors a higher mutational burden with distinct mutational landscapes from SCLC. We identified 14 cancer driver genes, including the most frequently altered KMT2C (100%), KNL1 (100%), NCOR2 (100%), and CCDC6 (93%) genes. Transcriptomic analysis identified several novel gene fusions; astonishingly, the MALAT1 lincRNA gene was found in ˜ 20% of all fusion events in NEC-GYN. Furthermore, NEC-GYN exhibited a highly immunosuppressive state, intact RB1 expression, and was uniquely enriched with the YAP1
