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

Large-scale chromosomal aberrations are prevalent in human cancer, but their function remains poorly understood. We established chromosome-engineered hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines using CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing. A 33-mega-base pair region on chromosome 8p (chr8p) was heterozygously deleted, mimicking a frequently observed chromosomal deletion. Using this isogenic model system, we delineated the functional consequences of chr8p loss and its impact on metastatic behavior and patient survival. We found that metastasis-associated genes on chr8p act in concert to induce an aggressive and invasive phenotype characteristic for chr8p-deleted tumors. Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 viability screening in isogenic chr8p-deleted cells served as a powerful tool to find previously unidentified synthetic lethal targets and vulnerabilities accompanying patient-specific chromosomal alterations. Using this target identification strategy, we showed that chr8p deletion sensitizes tumor cells to targeting of the reactive oxygen sanitizing enzyme Nudix hydrolase 17. Thus, chromosomal engineering allowed for the identification of novel synthetic lethalities specific to chr8p loss of heterozygosity.
