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

Recent years have seen a steady rise in the incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma worldwide. Although it is now appreciated that the key to understanding the process by which melanocytes are transformed into malignant melanoma lies in the interplay between genetic factors and the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum of sunlight, the nature of this relation has remained obscure. Recently, prospects for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying such gene-environment interactions have brightened considerably through the development of UV-responsive experimental animal models of melanoma. Genetically engineered mice and human skin xenografts constitute novel platforms upon which to build studies designed to elucidate the pathogenesis of UV-induced melanomagenesis. The future refinement of these in vivo models should provide a wealth of information on the cellular and genetic targets of UV, the pathways responsible for the repair of UV-induced DNA damage, and the molecular interactions between melanocytes and other skin cells in response to UV. It is anticipated that exploitation of these model systems will contribute significantly toward the development of effective approaches to the prevention and treatment of melanoma.
