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

Rhabdomyosarcomas constitute a collection of childhood malignancies thought to arise as a consequence of regulatory disruption of skeletal muscle progenitor cell growth and differentiation. Our understanding of the pathogenesis of this neoplasm has recently benefited from the study of normal and malignant myogenic cells in vitro, facilitating the identification of diagnostic cytogenetic markers and the elucidation of mechanisms by which myogenesis is regulated. It is now appreciated that the delicate balance between proliferation and differentiation, mutually exclusive yet intimately associated processes, is normally controlled in large part through the action of a multitude of growth factors, whose signals are interpreted by members of the MyoD family of helix - loop - helix proteins, and key regulatory cell cycle factors. The latter have proven to be frequent targets of mutational events that subvert myogenesis and promote the development of rhabdomyosarcoma. Although significant progress has been made in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma, patients presenting with metastatic disease or certain high risk features are still faced with a dismal prognosis. Only now are genetically engineered mouse models becoming available that are certain to provide fresh insights into the molecular/genetic pathways by which rhabdomyosarcomas arise and progress, and to suggest novel avenues of therapeutic opportunity.
