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

In this study, we investigate the influence of the seven genes (VHL, PBRM1, SETD2, BAP1, KDM5C, MTOR and TP53) most frequently mutated in clear cell renal cell cancer (ccRCC) on cancer-specific survival (CSS) in the prospective Netherlands Cohort Study on diet and cancer. DNA isolated from routinely archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumour blocks from 252 incident ccRCC cases was available for targeted next generation sequencing. Based on the sequencing quality and the completeness of information on clinical characteristics and follow-up, we could use 110 cases for survival analysis. The association with CSS for each mutated gene in these cases was tested using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models to estimate hazards ratios (HR) and confidence intervals (CIs), and we observed mutations in one or more of the seven genes in 64 out of 110 cases (58%). In the multivariable-adjusted analyses, mutations in VHL and PBRM1 were associated with better CSS (HRs (95% CI) 0.34 (0.13‒0.89) and 0.17 (0.04-0.66), respectively), although these results were not statistically significant after multiple testing correction. No association was observed for the other five genes, which may be attributable to limited power.
