Deep Sequencing of Early T Stage Colorectal Cancers Reveals Disruption of Homologous Recombination Repair in Microsatellite Stable Tumours with High Mutational Burdens.

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
Early T stage colorectal cancers (CRC) that invade lymph nodes (Stage IIIA) are rare and greatly under-represented in large-scale genomic mapping projects. We retrieved 10 Stage IIIA CRC cases, matched these to 16 Stage 1 CRC cases (T1 depth without lymph node metastasis) and carried out deep sequencing of 409 genes using the IonTorrent system. Tumour mutational burdens (TMB) ranged from 2.4 to 77.2/Mb sequenced. No stage-related mutational differences were observed, consistent with reanalysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Stage I and IIIA datasets. We next examined mutational burdens and observed that the top five cancers were microsatellite stable (MSS) genotypes (mean TMB 49.3/Mb), while the other 16 MSS cancers had a mean TMB of 5.9/Mb. To facilitate comparison with TCGA hypermutator CRC, we included four microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) samples with the high mutation burden MSS cases to form a TMB-High group. Comparison of TMB-High with TMB-Low groups revealed differences in mutational frequency of
