Learn to Estimate Genetic Mutation and Microsatellite Instability with Histopathology H&E Slides in Colon Carcinoma.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies and the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Identifying KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutations and estimating MSI status is closely related to the individualized therapeutic judgment and oncologic prognosis of CRC patients. In this study, we introduce a cascaded network framework with an average voting ensemble strategy to sequentially identify the tumor regions and predict gene mutations & MSI status from whole-slide H&E images. Experiments on a colorectal cancer dataset indicate that the proposed method can achieve higher fidelity in both gene mutation prediction and MSI status estimation. In the testing set, our method achieves 0.792, 0.886, 0.897, and 0.764 AUCs for KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, and MSI, respectively. The results suggest that the deep convolutional networks have the potential to provide diagnostic insight and clinical guidance directly from pathological H&E slides.
