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 MET receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) have been implicated in transformation of a variety of malignancies. Chronic or dysregulated activation of the MET/HGF pathway may lead to increased cell growth, invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis, reduced apoptosis, altered cytoskeletal functions and other biological changes. It has been suggested that ligand activated MET stimulation can be sufficient for a transforming phenotype. In addition, amplification and activation mutations (germline and/or somatic) within the tyrosine kinase domain, juxtamembrane domain, or semaphorin domain have been identified for MET. MET gain-of-function mutations lead to either deregulated or prolonged tyrosine kinase activity, which are instrumental to its transforming activity. A number of therapeutic strategies targeting ligand-dependent activation or the kinase domain have been employed to inhibit MET. The different structural requirements for activation of signaling events and biological functions regulated by MET will be summarized. Therapeutic targets and current pre-clinical and clinical approaches will be described. Targeting the HGF/MET pathway, alone or in combination with standard therapies, is likely to improve present therapies in MET-dependent malignancies.
