Review in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01029925 (A Multicenter, Phase II Open-Labeled, Single-Arm Clinical and Pharmacology Study of Dichloroacetate), which is not on this map. Cited by 20 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

Mammalian cells depend on extracellular input for the regulation of growth, proliferation and survival. Cancer cells evade these requirements, and are able to take up nutrients in a cell-autonomous fashion, which allows continuous growth and proliferation. To fulfill the high bioenergetic demands imposed by transformation, tumors must develop alternative mechanisms of energy production. Accordingly, the biochemical signature of cancer cells involves a shift to aerobic glycolysis, also known as the "Warburg effect". This property of cancer cells has resulted of great utility in modern medicine for detection of early tumors by positron-emission scanning. Nonetheless, the underlying mechanisms and contribution of the Warburg effect to the malignant phenotype have remained obscure. Thanks to recent advances in cancer research, we are beginning to understand the link between cancer genetics and the abnormal use of glucose by tumors. A new scenario is thus emerging, in which bioenergetics would contribute to and sustain malignant transformation. These findings are not only important for a better understanding of tumorigenesis; tumor reliance on glycolysis can be exploited in the search for novel, more potent therapeutic approaches to cancer treatment.
