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

Tumorigenesis and metastasis are complex multistep processes. In addition to the numerous somatic mutations that facilitate cancer progression, there is abundant evidence that an individual's genetic background not only contributes to overall cancer risk, but also specifically influences metastatic potential. The handful of human susceptibility genes that have been identified thus far do not fully account for hereditary cancer risk, and the discovery of additional susceptibility loci using population based studies is complex, time-consuming and expensive. Therefore, we and others have used a variety of mouse models to identify novel candidate susceptibility genes. Here we review how these mouse models have contributed to our understanding of the role of genetic background in modifying tumorigenesis and metastasis susceptibility.
