Genomic characterization of intracranial teratomas using whole genome sequencing.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Background: Intracranial teratoma is a rare neoplasm of the central nervous system, often classified into mature and immature types and occurs mainly in children and adolescents. To date, there has been no comprehensive genomic characterization analysis of teratoma due to its rarity of the cases. Methods: Forty-six patients with intracranial teratomas were collected and 22 of them underwent whole-exome sequencing, including 8 mature teratomas and 14 immature teratomas. A comprehensive analysis was performed to analyze somatic mutations, copy number variants (CNVs), mutational signatures, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway in our cohort. Results: The most common somatic mutated gene in intracranial teratomas was CARD11 (18%) and IRS1 (18%), followed by PSMD11, RELN, RRAS2, SMC1A, SYNE1 and ZFHX3, with mutation rates of 14% for the latter six genes. Copy number variation was dominated by amplification, among which ARAF (50%), ATP2B3 (41%), GATA1 (41%), ATP6AP1 (36%), CCND2 (36%) and ZMYM3 (36%) were the most frequently amplified genes. Copy number deletion of Conclusions: Our study revealed the genetic characteristics of intracranial teratoma which might be valuable for guiding future targeted therapies.
