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

Acromegaly results from growth hormone hypersecretion, predominantly caused by a somatotroph pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET). Acromegaly-causing tumors are histologically diverse. Our aim was to determine transcriptomic profiles of various somatotroph PitNETs and to evaluate clinical implication of differential gene expression. A total of 48 tumors were subjected to RNA sequencing, while expression of selected genes was assessed in 134 tumors with qRT-PCR. Whole-transcriptome analysis revealed three transcriptomic groups of somatotroph PitNETs. They differ in expression of numerous genes including those involved in growth hormone secretion and known prognostic genes. Transcriptomic subgroups can be distinguished by determining the expression of marker genes. Analysis of the entire cohort of patients confirmed differences between molecular subtypes of tumors. Transcriptomic group 1 includes ~20% of acromegaly patients with
