SuperDendrix algorithm integrates genetic dependencies and genomic alterations across pathways and cancer types.
Article in Cell genomics, 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
Recent genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screens have identified genetic dependencies across many cancer cell lines. Associations between these dependencies and genomic alterations in the same cell lines reveal phenomena such as oncogene addiction and synthetic lethality. However, comprehensive identification of such associations is complicated by complex interactions between genes across genetically heterogeneous cancer types. We introduce and apply the algorithm SuperDendrix to CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screens from 769 cancer cell lines, to identify differential dependencies across cell lines and to find associations between differential dependencies and combinations of genomic alterations and cell-type-specific markers. These associations respect the position and type of interactions within pathways: for example, we observe increased dependencies on downstream activators of pathways, such as
