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

Background: Multiplatform molecular subtyping has been put into clinical practice as an alternative for The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-based classification for endometrial cancer (EC), which proved a tool for predicting prognosis and guiding treatment. The traditional methods for the molecular classification of EC only based on pathological indicators are not accurate. The present study aimed to classify EC on a molecular level and explored the possibility of a one-time solution to guide clinical treatment and prognosis determination by utilizing data from a next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel. The ultimate aim was to utilize multiplatform testing to overcome disadvantages of long detection periods and limitations in the information regarding genetic variation. Methods: An NGS-panel was produced using FFPE samples isolated from 86 patients pathologically diagnosed with EC, and molecular subtyping was performed according to the recommended criteria. In addition, 45 matched samples from 86 patients were randomly selected for immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of Results: The molecular typing ratio of the 86 cases of endometrial carcinoma was calculated to be 16.28% for POLE type, 17.44% for MSI-H type, 47.67% for CN-L type, 12.79% for CN-H type, 5.81% for unclassified case. A comparison between IHC ProMisE-based subtyping and NGS-based subtyping of the 45 cases revealed that 3 cases were classified as MSI-H by IHC but as MSS by NGS. Among these cases, 1 case was deficient in Conclusions: The present study suggested that NGS-based subtyping could serve as an effective approach for the molecular typing of EC. Both NGS and IHC bear their own unique advantages and challenges in clinical practice.
