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

Standard techniques for detecting genomic rearrangements in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) biopsies have important limitations. We performed FFPE-compatible Hi-C on 44 clinical biopsies comprising large B cell lymphomas (n = 18), plasma cell neoplasms (n = 14), and other diverse lymphoid cancers, identifying consistent topological differences between malignant B cell and plasma cell states. Hi-C detected expected oncogene rearrangements at high concordance with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and supported enhancer hijacking in recurrent rearrangements of BCL2, CCND1, and MYC plus unanticipated variants involving homologous loci. Hi-C identified unanticipated non-coding rearrangements involving PD-1 ligand genes and other loci of potential therapeutic relevance, distinguished between functionally divergent classes of BCL6 rearrangements, and provided topological information supporting interpretation of variant MYC rearrangements. Hi-C revealed disease-selective MYC locus topological features that correlated with disease-selective MYC locus enhancers and rearrangement breakpoint distributions. FFPE-compatible Hi-C detects oncogene rearrangements and their topological consequences at genome-wide scale, finding clinically relevant drivers missed by standard approaches.
