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

There is an increasing recognition that the mutations accompanying carcinogenesis may provide a window of therapeutic advantage designated synthetic lethality, an example of which is reported in this issue of the journal by Huang and colleagues (beginning on page 666). First discovered and studied in yeast, synthetic lethality has basic principles that have encouraged its development for treatment and now prevention in animal models of human cancer, especially malignancies refractory to standard approaches. The pros and cons of this approach and challenges in implementing it clinically are discussed.
