Novel Treatments of Uveal Melanoma Identified with a Synthetic Lethal CRISPR/Cas9 Screen.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Currently, no systemic treatment is approved as the standard of care for metastatic uveal melanoma (UM). mTOR has been evaluated as a drug target in UM. However, one of the main limitations is dose reduction due to adverse effects. The combination of everolimus with another targeted agent would allow the reduction of the dose of a single drug, thus widening the therapeutic window. In our study, we aimed to identify a synergistic combination with everolimus in order to develop a novel treatment option for metastatic UM. We exploited CRISPR-Cas9 synthetic lethality screening technology to search for an efficient combination.
