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
backgroundAn accurate genotyping analysis is one of the critical prerequisites for patients with colorectal cancer receiving matched therapies. Conventional genotyping analysis is currently used to detect either gene mutations or MSI status, delaying the detection of critical tumor biomarkers and thus the optimal time for treatment. An assay that analyzes both biomarkers in a streamlined process is eagerly needed.
methodsWe developed an assay combining Multiplex PCR Amplification, Single-base Extension and capillary electrophoresis (CE) analysis (MASE-CE) for synchronous detection of KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutations and MSI status. In a 190 colorectal cancer cohort, we identified seven somatic mutations in KRAS, NRAS and BRAF as well as five MSI loci (D2S123/D5S346/D17S250/BAT-25/BAT-26) simultaneously. KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutations were detected by NGS and MASE-CE, and MSI status were detected by PCR-CE and MASE-CE methods.
resultsThe MASE-CE method showed high consistency with NGS for mutation detection (Kappa value ≥0.8) and PCR-CE (Kappa value = 0.79). In addition, the limits of detection (LOD) of MASE-CE assay for MSI and somatic mutation were 5% and 2%, respectively.
conclusionsIn somatic mutation detection and MSI detection, the LOD of MASE-CE assay was superior to that of qPCR and NGS. MASE-CE assay is a highly sensitive, time-saving and specimen-saving method, which can greatly avoid the cumbersome testing process and provide clinical decision for doctors in time.
