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

During normal mammary gland development, the tyrosine kinase Jak2 and its main substrate, the signal transducer and activator of transcription-5 (Stat5), are critical for the growth and differentiation of alveolar progenitors as well as the survival of secretory mammary epithelial cells. Genetic studies in mouse models support a role for the Stat5 transcription factor as a proto-oncogene in mammary tumor initiation. On the other hand, the analysis of nuclear Stat5 in human breast malignancies suggests a role of the Jak2/Stat5 pathway in the restriction of the metastatic potential of neoplastic mammary epithelial cells. Following an overview on the function of the Jak2/Stat5 pathway during normal mammary gland development, this review discusses recently published observations on human breast cancers as well as experimental evidence from genetically engineered mice that propose a dual role of Jak2/Stat5 signaling in breast cancer initiation and progression. Future studies to further test the concept of contrasting effects of Jak2/Stat5 pathway on breast cancer initiation and metastatic progression are proposed.
