Association of Germline Pathogenic Variants in
Article in JCO precision oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeAlthough lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies, the underlying genetics regarding susceptibility remain poorly understood. We characterized the spectrum of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants within DNA damage response (DDR) genes among lung cancer cases and controls in non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) and African Americans (AAs). MATERIALS AND
methodsRare, germline variants in 67 DDR genes with evidence of pathogenicity were identified using the ClinVar database. These P/LP variants were genotyped in a sample of 3,040 lung cancer cases and controls from the Inflammation, Health, Ancestry, and Lung Epidemiology study (NHW: n = 1,915; AA: n = 1,125) and were tested for their association with lung cancer using multivariate logistic regression adjusting for age, sex, pack-years, and race.
resultsWe identified 49 unique rare P/LP variants in 21 genes among 156 carriers. Approximately 5.9% of lung cancer cases and 4.2% of controls carried at least one P/LP variant. P/LP variants in DDR genes were more common in lung cancer cases, particularly those diagnosed with adenocarcinoma (odds ratio [OR], 1.46 [95% CI, 1.00 to 2.14]).
conclusionGermline variants in DDR genes appear to be associated with lung cancer, particularly when examined by gene subtype and morphologic subtype.
