Molecular features influencing clinical outcome of advanced HER2-positive gastric cancer receiving trastuzumab plus chemotherapy.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundLess than half of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive gastric cancer (GC) patients respond to trastuzumab plus chemotherapy, and the outcomes are unsatisfactory. Understanding the underlying mechanisms remains crucial for identifying patients who are more likely to benefit from treatment. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe performed targeted DNA sequencing on paired pre-treatment and progressive tumour tissues from 22 HER2-positive advanced GC patients undergoing first-line treatment with trastuzumab and chemotherapy. Clinicopathological and genomic characteristics were assessed for the correlation with clinical outcomes.
resultsA performance status (PS) of 0-1 was associated with improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than a PS of 2. Poorly differentiated tumours exhibited shorter PFS than moderate or moderate-poor ones. Pre-treatment amplification of
