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

Sporadic aggressive fibromatosis, or desmoid-type fibromatosis, is characterized by oncogenic mutations in CTNNB1. The clonal cell is a myofibroblast-like cell, and it has been hypothesized that the recruitment of normal myofibroblasts could contribute significantly to the tumor. We describe a case in which a CTNNB1 p.T41A mutation was present at a mutant allele frequency of 30%, suggesting that a significant proportion of the tumor myofibroblasts may have been recruited from normal precursor pools. In addition, a small subclone with a p.S45F mutation (allele frequency of 2%) was identified in the tumor. This case provides additional evidence that myofibroblasts recruited by a tumor from a normal precursor pool contribute significantly to the tumor; such recruitment could impact response to treatment and long-term outcomes.
