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 study of genetic polymorphisms has significantly advanced the field of personalized medicine. Polymorphism of genes influence the efficacy of drugs used for treating medical conditions such as depression, cardiac diseases, thromboembolic disorders, oncological diseases, etc. The study of genetic polymorphism is beneficial for drug safety as well as for assessing therapeutic outcomes. Understanding and detecting genetic polymorphisms early on in patients can be useful in selecting the correct chemotherapeutic agent and appropriate dosage for a patient. Knowing the genetic profile of a patient and the interindividual response to various drugs significantly influences the proper selection of medication - a key step towards personalized medicine. Polymorphisms also make patients susceptible to certain cancers and identification of these polymorphisms early can be useful for a personalized treatment plan. The Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) project where millions of genetic variants in the genomes of many individuals are studied to identify connections between what is present on the gene and the phenotype of the patient has enhanced the prospect of personalized medicine. GWAS has been used to identify hundreds of diseases associated to genetic polymorphisms. Individual pharmacokinetic profiles of patients to drugs enable the development of early surveillance protocols to prophylactically prevent patients from having adverse reactions. Furthermore, patient-derived cellular organoids are another advancement that allows researchers to screen for polymorphisms of the patient for adverse reactions from chemotherapy and will allow for the development of new medications that are specific to the profile of the patient's tumor. These advances have led to significant progress towards personalized medicine. The functional consequences of genetic polymorphism on cancer drugs and treatment are studied here.
