Pediatric precision oncology: "better three hours too soon than a minute too late".
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Precision oncology is defined as the selection of an effective treatment for a cancer patient based upon genomic profiling of the patient's tumor to identify targetable alterations. The application of precision oncology toward pediatric cancer patients has moved forward more slowly than with adults but is gaining momentum. Clinical and pharmaceutical advances developed over the past decade for adult cancer indications have begun to move into pediatric oncology, expanding treatment options for young high-risk and refractory patients. As a result, the FDA has approved 23 targeted drugs for pediatric cancer indications, moving targeted drugs into the standard of care. Our precision oncology program is in a medium sized children's hospital, lacking internal sequencing capabilities and bioinformatics. We have developed methods, medical and business partnerships to provide state-of-the-art tumor characterization and targeted treatment options for our patients. We present here a streamlined and practical protocol designed to enable any oncologist to implement precision oncology options for their patients.
