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 growth of both normal and neoplastic tissues is determined by a balance between cell proliferation and cell death. Thus, understanding how these processes not only drive tumour growth dynamics but also influence therapeutic responsiveness may aid in the development of more effective cancer treatments. Oestrogen is a major aetiological factor in the development and progression of breast cancer, and its effects in driving breast cancer cell proliferation have been extensively studied. What is less well understood is how oestrogen's role as a survival factor influences breast tumour growth and response to therapy. Recent gene expression profiling studies in breast cancer cohorts have suggested that aberrant apoptotic signalling may play a role in responsiveness to endocrine therapies. Thus, further elucidation of this process may lead to identification of clinically relevant end-points to determine and delineate therapeutic response in breast cancer patients.
