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

Oncogenic signaling, such as HER2/neu signaling, has been shown to play major role for tumorigenesis in a subset of breast cancer patients. The use of anti-HER2/neu antibody has not only revealed the mechanisms for HER2/neu signaling but also shown a therapeutic advantage of its blockade. Indeed, the use of trastuzumab has greatly improved the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer. Although this therapy has been used in the clinic for over twenty years, recent data is still uncovering new mechanisms by which this antibody exerts its anti-tumor activity. In addition to an improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which this therapy inhibits growth of tumor cells, the discovery that anti-HE2/neu therapy initiates and requires the adaptive immune system is one of these new mechanisms. The presence of anti-HER2/neu initiated adaptive immunity gives credence to efforts targeted at stimulating the immune system in treating HER2 positive breast cancer. This review focuses on the role of the inflammatory response in HER2 positive breast cancer with particular emphasis on trastuzumab therapy.
