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

purposeNext-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor-derived, circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) may aid in diagnosis, prognostication, and treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The operating characteristics of cfDNA mutational profiling must be determined before routine clinical implementation.

methodsThis was a single-center, retrospective study with the primary objective of defining genomic alterations in circulating cfDNA along with plasma-tissue genotype agreement between NGS of matched tumor samples in patients with advanced HCC. cfDNA was analyzed using a clinically validated 129-gene NGS assay; matched tissue-based NGS was analyzed with a US Food and Drug Administration-authorized NGS tumor assay.

resultsFifty-three plasma samples from 51 patients with histologically confirmed HCC underwent NGS-based cfDNA analysis. Genomic alterations were detected in 92.2% of patients, with the most commonly mutated genes including

conclusionTumor mutation profiling of cfDNA in HCC represents an alternative to tissue-based genomic profiling, given the high degree of tumor-plasma NGS concordance; however, genotyping of both blood and tumor may be required to detect all clinically actionable genomic alterations.
