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

This perspective on Stratton et al. (beginning on p. 160), Kowalczyk et al. (beginning on p. 170), and Katiyar et al. (beginning on p. 179) highlights the common theme of translational investigation of natural substances and their molecular effects and mechanisms in preventing skin squamous cell carcinoma, which has potentially severe clinical consequences. These studies comprise results of naturally occurring phytochemicals and green tea polyphenols in mouse models of UV-induced and chemically induced skin carcinogenesis and results of perillyl alcohol in a phase IIa clinical trial-all pointing to the great promise of this exciting approach for better understanding of and preventing skin cancer.
