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

objectiveTo study the feasibility of automated analysis by FISH technique in the determination of the 1p and/or 19q polysomy in oligodendrogliomas (OGs) and to explore its prognostic value.

methodsWe analyzed a retrospective monocentric series of 145 consecutive OGs with IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion. For all cases, automated FISH analyses were performed to determine 1p and/or 19q polysomy status and results were compared to manual analysis to verify the concordance of the two methods. Polysomic status was then compared to clinical and histological data, the CDKN2A deletion status when available, event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS).

resultsOur study comprised 79 grade 2 OGs (O2) and 66 grade 3 OGs (O3). Polysomy of 1p and/or 19q was observed in 58 cases (40% of whole cohort) with a significant enrichment in the high grade cohort (59% versus 24%; p < 0,0001) and recurrent cases (55%). A majority of polysomic cases were copolysomic for 1p and 19q (75% of the polysomic cohort) rather than 1p or 19q single polysomy (21% and 4% respectively). Polysomy was correlated to high grade histological criteria of high mitotic and Mib1 proliferative indices (p = 0,002 and p = 0,0005 respectively) and to vascular proliferation (p = 0,0003). Univariate and multivariate analysis showed a significant correlation betwen polysomy and a shorter EFS and OS (p = 0,02 and p = 0,016 respectively). Concordance between manual and automated analysis was almost perfect for both 1p and 19q analysis (96 and 98% respectively, κ = 0,92 and 0,95 respectively). Automated analysis revealed that the large majority of polysomic signatures are represented by a small number of R/G signals (mainly 7 signatures) allowing a very easy implementation to pre-existent FISH platforms analysis software.

conclusion1p and/ or 19q polysomy status represent a prognostic factor in OGs and can be easily determined by automated analysis. Our study supports the clinical interest to determine the polysomic status in all primitive or recurrent OGs and underline the benefits of automated analysis which offers a better archive storage and facilitates multicentric comparison.
