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

Cancer progression is driven by the accumulation of DNA mutations and aberrant gene regulation. Recent studies have demonstrated that multiple H3 mutations serve as drivers of tumorigenesis. However, the role and significance of various cancer-associated histone H2B mutations in cancer development remain unknown. Here, we investigate H2BE113K, a missense mutation of histone H2B predominantly found in patients with breast cancer. We show that H2BE113K promotes colony formation in breast cancer. Notably, transcriptomic analysis reveals differential expression of genes in various cancer pathways in H2BE113K cells. The loci with elevated gene expression display increased chromatin accessibility, accompanied by H2BE113K enrichment. Depletion of
