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

Cancer arises from normal cells that acquire a series of molecular changes; however, the founding events that create the clonogens from which a tumor will arise and progress have been the subject of speculation. Through the efforts of several generations of cancer biologists it has been established that the malignant phenotype is an amalgamation of genetic and metabolic alterations. Numerous theories have suggested that either, or both, of these elements might serve as the impetus for cancer formation. Recently, the epigenetic origins of cancer have been suggested as an additional mechanism giving rise to the malignant phenotype. When the discovery that the enzymes responsible for initiating and perpetuating epigenetic events is linked to metabolism by their cofactors, a new paradigm for the origins of cancer can be created. Here, we summarize the foundation of such a paradigm on the origins of cancer, in which metabolic alterations create an epigenetic progenitor that clonally expands to become cancer. We suggest that metabolic alterations disrupt the production and availability of cofactors such as S-adenosylmethionine, α-ketoglutarate, NAD(+), and acetyl-CoA to modify the epigenotype of cells. We further speculate that redox biology can change epigenetic events through oxidation of enzymes and alterations in metabolic cofactors that affect epigenetic events such as DNA methylation. Combined, these metabolic and redox changes serve as the foundation for altering the epigenotype of normal cells and creating the epigenetic progenitor of cancer.
