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

Ovarian cancer remains a deadly gynecological malignancy, with PTEN loss and TP53 mutations frequently implicated in its progression. However, suitable models for studying ovarian cancers with PTEN and TP53 deletions are rare. Here we develop and validate the mouse ovarian epithelium with Pten and Trp53 deletions (MEPP) model using the EPI-SauriCas9 system. We demonstrate the role of Pten loss in promoting tumorigenicity and metastasis. Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals distinct epithelial subpopulations with varying metastatic potential. MEPP also recapitulates key features of human ovarian cancer, including its immune landscape and therapeutic responses. High-throughput drug screening identifies FK228 and thioguanine as promising therapeutic candidates, both of which show in vivo efficacy and are validated in PTEN-deleted organoids. Together, these results establish MEPP as a platform for studying PTEN-deleted ovarian cancer and provide a strategy for generating clinically relevant tumor models through targeted gene editing.
