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

purposeColorectal carcinomas (CRCs) with microsatellite-instability (MSI) are enriched for oncogenic kinase fusions (KFs), including

methodsThe genomic profiles of 32,218 advanced CRC tumor specimens were analyzed to assess the fusion breakpoints of oncogenic alterations including KFs in microsatellite-stable and microsatellite-unstable CRC. Genomic contexts of such alterations were analyzed to obtain mechanistic insights.

resultsGenomic analysis demonstrated that oncogenic fusion breakpoints in MSI tumors do not preferentially involve repetitive or low-complexity sequences. Instead, their junction regions showed pronounced guanine and cytosine bias and elevated mutation frequency at G:C contexts. Elevated mutation frequency at G:C bases in relevant introns predicted prevalence of associated oncogenic fusions in MSI CRCs. CRCs harboring mismatch repair signatures had enrichment of butyrate-producing microbial species, reported to be associated with induction of 8-oxoguanine lesions in the intestine.

conclusionDetailed analysis of breakpoints in MSI-associated KFs support a model in which inefficient repair and/or processing of microbiome-induced clustered 8-oxoguanine damage in MSI CRC contributes to the increased incidence of specific oncogenic fusions.
