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

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate numerous physiological processes and represent the targets for a vast array of therapeutics for diseases ranging from depression to hypertension to reflux. Despite the recognition that GPCRs can act as oncogenes and tumour suppressors by regulating oncogenic signalling networks, few drugs targeting GPCRs are utilized in cancer therapy. Recent large-scale genome-wide analyses of multiple human tumours have uncovered novel GPCRs altered in cancer. However, work aiming to determine which GPCRs from these lists are the drivers of tumourigenesis, and hence valid therapeutic targets, comprises a formidable challenge. The present review highlights recent studies providing evidence that GPCRs are relevant targets for cancer therapy through their effects on known cancer signalling pathways, tumour progression, invasion and metastasis, and the microenvironment. Furthermore, the review also explores how genomic analysis is beginning to highlight GPCRs as therapeutic targets in the age of personalized medicine.
