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

Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is an important biomarker for tumor immunotherapy. It plays an important role in the clinical treatment process, but the gold standard measurement of TMB is based on whole exome sequencing (WES). WES cannot be done in most hospitals due to its high cost, long turnaround times and operational complexity. To seek out a better method to evaluate TMB, we divided the patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in TCGA into two groups according to the TMB value, then analyzed the differences of clinical characteristics and gene expression between the two groups. We further explored the possibility of using histopathological images to predict TMB status, and developed a deep learning model to predict TMB based on histopathological images of LUAD. In the 5-fold cross-validation, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) of the model was 0.64. This study showed that it is possible to use deep learning to predict genomic features from histopathological images, though the prediction accuracy was relatively low. The study opens up a new way to explore the relationship between genes and phenotypes.
