Examination of Genetic Susceptibility in Radiation-Associated Meningioma.
Article in Radiation research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Previous epidemiological studies have demonstrated elevated susceptibility to ionizing radiation in some families, thus suggesting the presence of genetic components that conferred increased rate of radiation-associated meningioma (RAM). In this study, we exome-sequenced and investigated the segregation pattern of rare deleterious variants in 11 RAM pedigrees. In addition, we performed a rare-variant association analysis in 92 unrelated familial cases of RAM that were ancestry-matched with 88 meningioma-free controls. In the pedigree analysis, we found that each family carried mostly a unique set of rare deleterious variants. A follow-up pathway analysis of the union of the genes that segregated within each of the 11 pedigrees identified a single statistically significant (q value = 7.90E-04) "ECM receptor interaction" set. In the case-control association analysis, we observed no statistically significant variants or genes after multiple testing correction; however, examination of ontological categories of the genes that associated with RAM at nominal P values <0.01 identified biologically relevant pathways such as DNA repair, cell cycle and apoptosis. These results suggest that it is unlikely that a small number of highly penetrant genes are involved in the pathogenesis of RAM. Substantially larger studies are needed to identify genetic risk variants and genes in RAM.
