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

Background: Brain metastasis (BM) explains the majority of lung cancer-related mortality, especially lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The extensive clinical adoption of liquid biopsy presents a minimally invasive approach for the early detection and treatment management of brain metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma (BM-LUAD). Nonetheless, biomarkers for assessing BM-LUAD remain insufficient. This study aims to reveal novel biomarkers for BM-LUAD through the liquid biopsy of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Methods: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based panel sequencing was conducted on CSF samples from seven patients with BM-LUAD. Additionally, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from normal lung tissue, primary tumors, and BMs were analyzed using publicly available datasets. Functional assays were performed on cell lines, complemented by Results: CSF liquid biopsy identified high-frequency mutations in Conclusions: Our study highlights the potential of ctDNA-based CSF liquid biopsy in identifying BM-LUAD, and the efficacy in revealing novel biomarkers for BM-LUAD. Data analyses and functional assays indicated
