RNA fusion transcript panel identifies diverse repertoire of fusions in adult glioma patients with therapeutic implications.
Article in Neuro-oncology practice, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Recurrent gliomas are therapeutically challenging diseases with few treatment options available. One area of potential therapeutic vulnerability is the presence of targetable oncogenic fusion proteins. Methods: To better understand the clinical benefit of routinely testing for fusion proteins in adult glioma patients, we performed a retrospective review of 647 adult patients with glioma who underwent surgical resection at our center between August 2017 and May 2021 and whose tumors were analyzed with an in-house fusion transcript panel. Results: Fifty-two patients (8%) were found to harbor a potentially targetable fusion with 11 (21%) of these patients receiving treatment with a fusion-targeted inhibitor. The targetable genes found to be involved in a fusion included Conclusions: This analysis demonstrates that routine clinical testing for gene fusions identifies a diverse repertoire of potential therapeutic targets in adult patients with glioma and can offer rational therapeutic options for patients with recurrent disease.
