CHD5 gene variant predicts leptomeningeal metastasis after surgical resection of brain metastases of breast cancer.
Article in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeLeptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a complication of surgery for brain metastasis and is a risk factor of poor prognosis. The risk of LM is particularly high after surgery for a breast cancer metastasis to the brain. If the risk of LM after surgical resection for a brain metastasis were predictable, appropriate adjuvant therapy could be administered to individual patients to improve their prognosis. The present study aimed to reveal the genetic characteristics of brain metastases as means of predicting LM in breast cancer patients.
methodsTen patients with brain metastases of breast cancer presented LM after surgical resection were analyzed by whole-exome sequencing.
resultsA chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein 5 (CHD5) gene alteration was detected in nine cases (90%), including a nonsynonymous variant in four cases and copy number deletion in five cases. CHD5 protein expression was lost in nine cases and had decreased in one case. The frequency of CHD5 gene alteration in brain metastases with LM was significantly higher than in primary breast cancer (2.3%) or in brain metastases of breast cancer (0%) (p < 0.0001).
conclusionsThese results suggested that the CHD5 gene alteration was associated with LM after surgical resection of breast cancer brain metastases. Searching for the gene alteration might predict the LM risk after surgical resection.
