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

Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a soft part malignancy affecting adolescents and young adults. ASPS is characterized by a highly integrated vascular network, and its high metastatic potential indicates the importance of ASPS's prominent angiogenic activity. Here, we find that the expression of ASPSCR1::TFE3, the fusion transcription factor causatively associated with ASPS, is dispensable for in vitro tumor maintenance; however, it is required for in vivo tumor development via angiogenesis. ASPSCR1::TFE3 is frequently associated with super-enhancers (SEs) upon its DNA binding, and the loss of its expression induces SE-distribution dynamic modification related to genes belonging to the angiogenesis pathway. Using epigenomic CRISPR/dCas9 screening, we identify Pdgfb, Rab27a, Sytl2, and Vwf as critical targets associated with reduced enhancer activities due to the ASPSCR1::TFE3 loss. Upregulation of Rab27a and Sytl2 promotes angiogenic factor-trafficking to facilitate ASPS vascular network construction. ASPSCR1::TFE3 thus orchestrates higher ordered angiogenesis via modulating the SE activity.
