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

Transferability of transcriptome-based gene-dependency models from two-dimensional cancer models to organoids remains uncertain. Expression-only Elastic Net models for 20 preselected genes were selected using patient-grouped nested cross-validation in 681 models and evaluated in a locked 171-model holdout. Historical target selection used all 852 models, making holdout performance conditional internal confirmation rather than an unbiased generalization estimate. After refitting on all 852 models, frozen models underwent exploratory evaluation in 94 Broad organoids and blinded validation in 148 Sanger organoids from 144 donors. Predictions were sealed before Sanger outcome access. Primary target-wise Spearman correlations, ranking organoids per gene, averaged 0.4094, 0.1518, and 0.1015 in holdout, Broad, and Sanger, respectively. Sanger association exceeded the within-lineage permutation null (
