NTRK1-rearranged histiocytosis: clinicopathologic and molecular features.
Article in Blood advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
abstractNon-Langerhans cell histiocytoses are a diverse group of histiocytic diseases. Different entities are defined based on clinical, histopathologic, and/or molecular characteristics. This study aimed to define NTRK-rearranged histiocytosis. Through international collaboration, we investigated 50 cases of histiocytosis with pan-tropomyosin receptor kinase (pan-TRK) expression and/or in-frame NTRK rearrangement. We also analyzed 45 control xanthogranulomas using pan-TRK immunohistochemistry and targeted RNA sequencing. Slides were centrally reviewed; clinical and molecular data were collected. The 50 cases comprised 30 children and 20 adults with a median age of 11.5 years (range, 0-73 years) and a male predominance (64%). Most patients (88%) had disease limited to the skin, including a single skin nodule in 41 patients and multiple skin lesions in 3 others. Four newborns presented with skin lesions, hepatomegaly, and thrombocytopenia that required transfusions. The 2 remaining patients had life-threatening lesions of the brain or bronchus. All cases displayed xanthogranuloma histology, often including foamy histiocytes and Touton giant cells. Histiocytes stained positive for pan-TRK in 50 of 50 cases, whereas all 45 control xanthogranulomas without in-frame NTRK fusions stained negative. NTRK1 fusion partners included IRF2BP2 (23/46), TPM3 (12/46), SQSTM1 (3/46), PRDX1 (3/46), NPM1 (2/46), LMNA (2/46), and ARHGEF2 (1/46). Clinical outcomes were favorable, including spontaneous disease regression in 3 of 4 newborns with systemic disease, and rapid clinical response in both patients with a brain or bronchial tumor treated with the TRK inhibitor larotrectinib. This study advances the molecular characterization of histiocytoses and may guide the diagnosis and personalized treatment of patients.
