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

Cancer is a heterogeneous disease with a strong genetic component making it suitable for precision medicine approaches aimed at identifying the underlying molecular drivers within a tumour. Large scale population-level cancer sequencing consortia have identified many actionable mutations common across both cancer types and sub-types, resulting in an increasing number of successful precision medicine programs. Nonetheless, such approaches fail to consider the effects of mutations unique to an individual patient and may miss rare driver mutations, necessitating personalised approaches to driver-gene prioritisation. One approach is to quantify the functional importance of individual mutations in a single tumour based on how they affect the expression of genes in a gene interaction network (GIN). These GIN-based approaches can be broadly divided into those that utilise an existing reference GIN and those that construct
