+*   **Enhancement**: One-sided Fisher's exact tests were changed to be two-sided. The affected pages are:
+    *    Results View Page - Mutual Exclusivity Tab
+    *    Results View Page - Comparison Tab - Genomic Alterations Tab
+    *    Comparison Page - Genomic Alterations Tab
+    *    Comparison Page - Mutations Tab
+
+    Please note that the Mutations tab on the Comparison page is a recent feature and was introduced with the two-sided Fisher's exact test already implemented.
+
+    Several users pointed out that using a one-sided test was incorrect for these comparisons. Please see discussions [here](https://github.com/cBioPortal/cbioportal/issues/9943) for more information.
