Immunological and Genomic Analysis Reveals Clinically Relevant Distinctions between Angiosarcoma Subgroups.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Angiosarcomas (AS) are extremely rare and aggressive vascular malignancies subdivided in de novo primary AS (pAS) and secondary AS (sAS). We hypothesize that the combination of immunological and genomic profiles significantly differs between primary and secondary AS, with potential impact on treatment strategies and a role for immunotherapy. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes were analyzed using multiplex immunohistochemistry from 79 pAS and 178 sAS. Median cell density was significantly higher in sAS for CD3+ T-cells (p < 0.001), CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells (p = 0.033), CD4+ T-helper cells (p < 0.001) and FoxP3+ T-regulatory cells (p < 0.001). CD20+ B-cell density was comparable (p = 0.417). Comprehensive genomic profiling was performed in 25 pAS and 25 sAS. A (likely) pathogenic mutation was detected in 80% of pAS vs. 88% of sAS (p = 0.702). Amplifications were found in 15% of pAS vs. 84% of sAS (p < 0.001). DNA damage response (DDR) pathway mutations (p = 0.021) and MYC amplifications (p < 0.001) were predominantly seen in sAS. In conclusion we observed a clear and clinical relevant distinction in immune infiltration and genomic profiles between pAS and sAS. The T-cell infiltrated tumor microenvironment and frequent DDR gene mutations, especially in sAS, warrant clinical trials with immunotherapy.
