Bioinformatic and Machine Learning Applications in Melanoma Risk Assessment and Prognosis: A Literature Review.
Review in Genes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Over 100,000 people are diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma each year in the United States. Despite recent advancements in metastatic melanoma treatment, such as immunotherapy, there are still over 7000 melanoma-related deaths each year. Melanoma is a highly heterogenous disease, and many underlying genetic drivers have been identified since the introduction of next-generation sequencing. Despite clinical staging guidelines, the prognosis of metastatic melanoma is variable and difficult to predict. Bioinformatic and machine learning analyses relying on genetic, clinical, and histopathologic inputs have been increasingly used to risk stratify melanoma patients with high accuracy. This literature review summarizes the key genetic drivers of melanoma and recent applications of bioinformatic and machine learning models in the risk stratification of melanoma patients. A robustly validated risk stratification tool can potentially guide the physician management of melanoma patients and ultimately improve patient outcomes.
