Prospective Screening of Cancer Syndromes in Patients with Mesenchymal Tumors.
Article in Cancers, 2024. 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
backgroundThe etiology of most mesenchymal tumors is unknown, and knowledge about syndromes with an increased risk of tumors in bone or soft tissue is sparse.
methodsWe present a prospective germline analysis of 312 patients with tumors suspected of being sarcomas at a tertiary sarcoma center. Germline and tumor whole genome sequencing, tumor transcriptome, and methylome analyses were performed.
resultsGermline pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants associated with an increased risk of tumors were detected in 24 patients (8%), of which 11 (4%) harbored a detectable second hit in the tumor. Second hits were confirmed in genes with (
conclusionsWe conclude that second-hit analyses can be used in standard of care to identify syndrome-related tumors. This approach can help distinguish true manifestations of tumor syndromes from unrelated germline findings and enhance the understanding of germline predisposition in soft tissue tumors. Prospective screening using germline whole genome sequencing should be considered when comprehensive somatic sequencing is introduced into clinical practice.
