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

BRAF mutations are oncogenic drivers present in about 7% of human cancers, with the V600E substitution being the most frequent. In the nervous system, BRAFV600E has been identified in both low- and high-grade gliomas (LGG and HGG) and in tumors of the peripheral nervous system. To investigate the mechanisms underlying BRafV600E-driven tumorigenesis, we generated a mouse model in which the BRafV600E mutation and Pten deletion can be induced through the Sox2-CreERT2 system. This inducible deleter is active in adult neural stem/progenitor cells (aNSPCs) and Schwann cell precursors (SCPs). In this model, BRafV600E-mutated/Pten-deleted telencephalic aNSPCs give rise to diffuse LGG with oligodendroglioma-like features resembling the human diffuse LGG, MAPK pathway-altered subtype. In contrast, mutated SCPs develop schwannomas, cutaneous neurofibromas, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs). Sox2 deletion in BRafV600E/Pten
