Advances in Molecular Profiling and Developing Clinical Trials of CNS Germ Cell Tumors: Present and Future Directions.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewThe last decade has seen significant improvements in the management and understanding of the pathogenesis of CNS germ cell tumors (GCTs) by studies on genomic and epigenomic analyses, and published results of clinical trials. This review highlights the new findings to stay up-to-date on the knowledge and better inform the future directions. RECENT
findingsCNS GCTs are characterized by either MAPK or PI3K pathway mutations. Germinoma has a striking global hypo-methylation, analogous to its hypothesized cell-of-origin; primordial germ cell. Micro RNA cluster mir-371-373 and mir-302/367 are characteristic of GCTs, which have potential for liquid biopsy. Clinical trials have revealed whole-ventricular irradiation for germinoma and local radiotherapy for localized non-germinomatous GCTs seem to be sufficient for tumor control. Advancements in basic, translational, and clinical studies are improving our understanding of this rare disease. Further studies are needed, especially in the field of radiomics, liquid biopsy, genomic structural variants, and treatment stratification, to better structure the future management scheme.
