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

Background: Chordoma is a rare malignant bone tumor with high recurrence and metastasis rates. Little is known about the mutational process of this incurable disease. The aim of our research was to explore the potential driver genes and signal pathways in the pathogenesis of chordoma and provide a new idea for the study of molecular biological therapy of chordoma. Methods: We performed whole-exome-sequencing (WES) on 8 sacrum chordoma tissue samples (matched to peripheral blood samples that had been drawn from patients before surgery) to identify genetic alterations in Chinese patients. We analyzed the sequencing data from known driver genes, pathway enrichment analysis and significantly mutated genes (SMGs) after quality control of sequencing, comparison of reference genomes, analysis of mutations and identification of somatic mutations. Immunohistochemistry staining, Sanger sequencing and GeneChip were used to verify the related genes obtained from the analysis of sequencing data. Results: The driver genes Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate 3-Kinase Catalytic Subunit Alpha ( Conclusions: Collectively, our results identified the genetic signature of sacrum chordoma and could be used to develop a potential promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of sacrum chordoma in Chinese patients.
