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

The rapid evolution of genomic technologies over the last years has led to the development of different methods for the detection, measurement and analysis of cell-free DNA fragments (cfDNA) which are shed into the bloodstream by apoptotic cells and circulate at a low concentration in plasma. In cancer patients, the proportion of tumor-derived cfDNA is defined as circulating tumor DNA. This analysis, commonly known as liquid biopsy, allows to access tumor DNA through a simple blood sampling and therefore without the need of an invasive tissue biopsy. For this reason, this tool may have several clinical applications in terms of diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of minimal residual disease. However, there are still several critical issues that need to be resolved. In this review, we will discuss some of the controversies around this method and its potential clinical applications.
