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

Multi-omics strategies, integrating genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, have revolutionized biomarker discovery and enabled novel applications in personalized oncology. Despite rapid technological developments, a comprehensive synthesis addressing integration strategies, analytical workflows, and translational applications has been lacking. This review presents a comprehensive framework of multi-omics integration, encompassing workflows, analytical techniques, and computational tools for both horizontal and vertical integration strategies, with particular emphasis on machine learning and deep learning approaches for data interpretation. Recent applications of multi-omics have yielded promising biomarker panels at the single-molecule, multi-molecule, and cross-omics levels, supporting cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic decision-making. However, major challenges persist, particularly in data heterogeneity, reproducibility, and the clinical validation of biomarkers across diverse patient populations. This review also highlights cutting-edge advances in single-cell multi-omics and spatial multi-omics technologies, which are expanding the scope of biomarker discovery and deepening our understanding of tumor heterogeneity. Finally, we discuss the integral role of multi-omics in personalized oncology, with a particular focus on predicting drug responses and optimizing individualized treatment strategies, supported by real-world clinical practice cases. By bridging technological innovations with translational applications, this review aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians, offering insights into both current methodologies and future directions for implementing multi-omics data in biomarker discovery and personalized cancer care.
