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

Adenocarcinomas are rare histological subtypes of bladder cancer mainly presenting as primary bladder adenocarcinomas (PBACs), or urachal carcinomas (UrCs). The lack of standardized, evidence-based clinical recommendations for therapy results in individualized treatment decisions. These personalized treatments may be tailored based on molecular analyses to target driver mutations. The genetic background of UrC and PBAC has been increasingly explored through molecular analysis of relatively small case series. Similarly, experiences with targeted treatments are available from individual case reports and single institution case series. Consequently, currently available genetic and targeted treatment data are fragmented, hindering a comprehensive overview and firm conclusions. Therefore, we aimed to catalogue and interpret recent molecular genetic insights and targeted therapeutic experiences in UrC and PBAC in order to provide a basis for improved clinical decision-making. In this review, we screened online databases with search terms selective for genetic and targeted therapeutic data in UrC and PBAC. Utilizing the extracted data, we identified mutational frequencies, created OncoPrints, investigated signaling pathways, and evaluated treatment approaches guided by precision medicine. Our summary of genetic findings and targeted therapy strategies are intended to support off-label options for UrC and PBAC.
