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

The prevalence of homologous recombination-DNA damage response (HR-DDR) genetic alterations is of therapeutic interest in gastroesophageal cancers. This study is a comprehensive assessment of HR-DDR mutation prevalence across gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas. Here we investigate the association of HR-DDR mutations with known predictors for immune-checkpoint inhibition [deficiency in mismatch-repair (dMMRP), tumor mutational burden (TMB), and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)]. We confirmed HR-DDR mutations are present in a subset of gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas (23%) and gastroesophageal squamous cell carcinomas (20%). Biomarker expression of dMMRP (18% vs. 1%) and TMB-high with a cutoff of ≥10 mt/MB (27% vs. 9%) was significantly more prevalent in the DDR-mutated cohort compared with the non-DDR-mutated cohort. Mean combined positive score for PD-L1 in the total adenocarcinoma cohort was significantly higher in the DDR-mutated cohort compared with the non-DDR-mutated cohort (10.1 vs. 5.8). We demonstrated that alterations in
