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

backgroundTesting of multiple cancer related genes using next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been widely used for personalized precision medicine of cancer. Integrated analysis of those NGS data and clinical data has offered new opportunities for investigating the relationship between driver genes' mutations and clinical characteristics in large cohorts. This study aims to explore the mutational landscape and its association with clinical features in a lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cohort.

methodsTumor tissues from 132 LUAD patients were subjected to customized 30 genes targeted next-generation sequencing. Somatic mutations of the 30 genes were identified and annotated. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the cooccurrence of mutations of different driver genes and the association relationships between gene mutation and clinical features including gender and age.

resultsA total of 96.97% (128/132) of LUAD patients experienced genetic mutations. EGFR had the highest mutation rate (81, 61.36%) among the 30 genes, followed by TP53 (80, 60.61%), BRAF (30, 22.73%), KRAS (21, 15.91%) and ROS1 (21, 15.91%). The L858R substitution and exon19 deletion were the predominant mutations of EGFR, accounting for 82.71% of EGFR-mutated patients. The 27 mutation sites of EGFR were mainly located in the tyrosine kinase catalytic domain (22/27, 81.48%). Mutations of SDHA (p < 0.01), ERBB2 (p < 0.01), and ESR1 (p < 0.05) were negatively correlated with age, and mutations of NF1 (p < 0.01), KRAS (p < 0.01), and TP53 (p < 0.001) were significantly associated with gender.

conclusionsThis work revealed the mutational landscape and characteristics of 30 core driver genes in a LUAD cohort. Co-mutated genes and genes associated with gender and age indicate their different roles in the corresponding subgroup of the LUAD.
