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

The endothelins (ETs), which include ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, and their receptors ET-A and ET-B, play a major role in tumor growth, proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and bone metastasis. Atrasentan is a novel and selective inhibitor of ET-1 and ET-A. In vitro and in vivo data show that this oral agent is capable of inhibiting tumor cells in vitro. More recently, this agent was studied in several phase I trials with refractory carcinoma patients. Subsequently, phase II and III clinical trials evaluating atrasentan in patients with hormone-refractory prostate carcinoma have suggested that targeting this pathway may be a new therapeutic strategy in the treatment of solid malignancies, specifically, prostate cancer.
