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

Tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) are crucial for activating T cells against cancer, but traditional discovery methods focusing on exonic mutations overlook non-canonical TSAs from non-coding regions. We employed an integrative proteogenomic strategy combining whole-genome and RNA sequencing with immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry to comprehensively explore TSA generation in colorectal cancer patients. Analysis of 10 paired tumor samples identified 96 mutated major histocompatibility complex class I-presented neo-epitopes, with 80.21% originating from non-coding regions. In hypermutated tumors with high mutational burden, neo-epitopes predominantly arose from intergenic and intronic areas, while in non-hypermutated tumors with low mutational burden, they mainly stemmed from coding variations and alternative splicing events. Functional validation in mouse models demonstrated that mutated non-canonical neo-epitopes effectively activated CD8
