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

Among the many transmembrane receptor classes, the receptor tyrosine kinases represent an important superfamily, involved in many cellular processes like embryogenesis, development and cell division. Deregulation and dysfunctions of these receptors can lead to various forms of cancer and other diseases. Mostly, only fragmented knowledge exists about functioning of the entire receptors, and many studies have been performed on isolated receptor domains. In this review we focus on the function of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases with a special emphasis on the role of the transmembrane domain and on the mechanisms underlying regulated and deregulated signaling. Many general aspects of ErbB receptor structure and function have been analyzed and described. All human ErbBs appear to form homo- and heterodimers within cellular membranes and the single transmembrane domain of the receptors is involved in dimerization. Additionally, only defined structures of the transmembrane helix dimer allows signaling of ErbB receptors.
