Childhood cancer data initiative: expanded access to tumor molecular profiling for children, adolescents, and young adults.
Article in Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The Molecular Characterization Initiative (MCI), a key effort of the National Cancer Institute's Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI), was launched in 2022 in collaboration with the Children's Oncology Group (COG) to bring comprehensive genomic and molecular profiling to children, adolescents, and young adults diagnosed with cancer. The MCI provides paired tumor and germline molecular testing, with results returned to clinicians to inform care. Deidentified data are made available to the research community through the CCDI Data Ecosystem to facilitate the discovery of new treatment strategies. This commentary outlines the MCI's development, key accomplishments to date, and its role in laying the foundation for standardized clinical diagnostics in pediatric oncology.
