Genetic profile of Chinese patients with small bowel cancer categorized by anatomic location.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSmall bowel cancer (SBC) is a very rare solid malignancy. Consequently, compared with other malignant gastrointestinal tumors, our knowledge regarding SBC, specifically its molecular attributes, remains limited. Herein, we aim to provide an overview of the gene characteristics of Chinese patients with SBC, We particularly focus on elucidating the genetic intricacies that differentiate SBC patients whose primary tumors originate in distinct anatomical regions within the small bowel.
methodsDuring the period ranging from February 2018 to December 2022, a total of 298 tumor samples were consecutively collected from Chinese patients diagnosed with small bowel cancer.. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to detect gene mutation, assess microsatellite instability (MSI), and evaluate tumor mutational burden (TMB). Additionally,, IHC was used to analyze the level of PD-L1 expression within the samples.
resultsThe outcomes of the next-generation sequencing (NGS) unveiled the predominant gene mutations observed in Chinese patients with small bowel cancer (SBC). The top ten gene mutations identified were as follows: TP53 (53%), KRAS (51%), APC (31%), SMAD4 (19%), VEGFA (15%), CDKN2A (15%), RAC1 (15%), LRP1B (14%), MGMT (14%, CD74 (13%). Subsequent analysis revealed disparities in the gene landscape between the cohort in this study and that of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), Notably, distinguishable mutational frequencies were identified in several genes, including ERBB2, FBXW7, PIK3CA, etc. which exhibited contrasting presence in both this cohort and the MSKCC cohort.. Furthermore, we noticed variations in the frequency of gene mutations among SBC patients depending on the specific anatomical site where the tumors originated within the small bowel. In addition, the distribution of patients with high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and tumor mutational burden (TMB) levels varied among SBC patients with tumors originating from the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.
conclusionChinese patients with small bowel cancer exhibited a distinct genetic profile in comparison to other populations, highlighting a unique genetic landscape. Furthermore, noticeable disparities in the genetic landscape were observed between patients with cancer situated in the duodenum and those with cancer affecting other regions of the small bowel, this suggests that these patients should be treated differently.
