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

Mechanisms to explain tumor cell resistance to drugs that target the microtubule cytoskeleton have relied on the assumption that the drugs act either to suppress microtubule dynamics or to perturb the balance between assembled and nonassembled tubulin. Recently, however, it was found that these drugs also alter the stability of microtubule attachment to centrosomes, and do so at the same concentrations that are needed to inhibit cell division. Based on this new information, a new model is presented that explains resistance resulting from a variety of molecular changes that have been reported in the literature. The improved understanding of drug action and resistance has important implications for chemotherapy with these agents.
