The fibroblast epigenome underlies SS18::SSX-mediated transformation in synovial sarcoma.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Synovial sarcoma (SyS) is an aggressive soft-tissue malignancy that is characterised by a pathognomonic t(X;18)(p11.2;q11.2) translocation, which produces the fusion oncogene named SS18::SSX. Despite recent advancements in our understanding of synovial sarcoma biology, the cell-of-origin remains undefined. A mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) specific CreERT2 line was employed to express SS18::SSX in fibroblasts and related cell types, resulting in 100% penetrant synovial sarcoma development in mice, with a median latency period of 16.2 ± 2.8 weeks. Murine tumours exhibited high concordance with human synovial sarcoma subtypes at the histological and molecular levels. Genetic refinement of the cell-of-origin revealed that synovial sarcomas derive from a rare Hic1
