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

backgroundTranscriptional subtypes of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) based on the expression of hallmark genes may have prognostic implications and potential predictive functions. The two most employed subtyping markers assess the combined expression of KRT81 and HNF1A or of GATA6 alone, which can be detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). This study aimed to determine the prognostic or predictive impact of both subtyping marker panels in two large cohorts of advanced and resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients.

methodsTranscriptional subtypes were determined by combining the expression of KRT81/HNF1A or assessing GATA6 expression alone by IHC in samples of two independent PDAC patient cohorts (advanced PDAC

resultsTranscriptional subtypes widely overlapped in both marker panels (χ

conclusionsTranscriptional subtypes have differential responses to palliative and adjuvant gemcitabine-based chemotherapy and may change during disease progression. Both employed subtyping marker panels are equivalent and may be used to inform clinical therapy decisions.
