Gene therapy for lung cancer.
Review in Molecular biotechnology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Lung cancer continues to be the largest killer of Americans due to cancer. Although progress has been made, with advances in chemotherapy, the majority of patients diagnosed with lung cancer ultimately succumb to the disease. A better understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of lung cancer is demonstrating how alterations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes control lung cancer initiation, growth, and survival. In this article, attempts to target molecular alterations in lung cancer using gene therapy techniques are reviewed. These include introducing suicide genes into tumor cells, replacement of defective tumor suppressor genes, inactivating oncogenes, and immunotherapy-based approaches using gene therapy technology. The major barrier for these techniques continues to be the inability to specifically target tumor cells while sparing normal cells. Nonetheless, these approaches are likely to yield important biologic and clinical data which will further the progress of lung cancer treatment.
