Application value of whole exome sequencing in screening and identifying novel mutations of hypopharyngeal cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The research on targeted therapy of hypopharyngeal cancer is very scarce. The discovery of new targeted driver genes will promote the progress of hypopharyngeal cancer therapy to a great extent. In our research, whole-exome sequencing in 10 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer was performed to identify single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and insertions and deletions (INDELs). American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines were used to evaluate the pathogenicity of the selected variants. 8113 mutation sites in 5326 genes were identified after strict screening. We identified 72 pathogenic mutations in 53 genes according to the ACMG guidelines. Gene Ontology (GO) annotation and KEGG enrichment analysis show the effect of these genes on cancer. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) was analyzed by string online software. The validation results of the ualcan database showed that 22 of the 53 genes may be related to the poor prognosis of patients with hypopharyngeal cancer. RBM20 has the most significant correlation with hypopharyngeal cancer, and it is likely to be the driver gene of hypopharyngeal cancer. In conclusion, we found possible therapeutic targets for hypopharyngeal cancer, especially RBM20 and KMT2C. Our study provides a basis for the pathogenesis and targeted therapy of hypopharyngeal cancer.
