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

backgroundBRAF activating mutations occur in approximately 10% of metastatic colorectal cancer (CRCs) and are associated with worse prognosis in part due to an inferior response to standard chemotherapy. Standard of care for patients with refractory metastatic BRAF

methodsBRAF plus EGFR inhibitor treatment induced changes in cell composition were determined by gene expression, imaging and single cell approaches in multiple models of BRAF mutant CRC. Furthermore, multiple clinically relevant inhibitors of the lysine demethylase LSD1 were tested to determine which inhibitor blocked the changes in cell composition.

resultsCombined BRAF and EGFR inhibition enriched for EECs in all BRAF mutant CRC models tested. Additionally, EECs and other secretory cell types were enriched in a subset of BRAF

conclusionsOur findings that BRAF plus EGFR inhibition induces lineage plasticity in BRAF
