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

Evaluation of: Cen B, Mahajan S, Wang W, Kraft AS. Elevation of receptor tyrosine kinases by small molecule AKT inhibitors in prostate cancer is mediated by Pim-1. Cancer Res. 73(11), 3402-3411 (2013). The PI3K/Akt pathway is a key pathway in many advanced and aggressive cancers. Targeted inhibition of this pathway is currently an actively pursued therapeutic strategy. However, blockade of this pathway with inhibitors has been challenging, with up-regulation of reciprocal feedback pathways contributing to treatment failures. The article evaluated presents mechanistic data on how Pim is a critical mediator of the receptor tyrosine elevation induced by Akt inhibition. Pim-1 kinases are overexpressed in resistant and aggressive cancers. Following Akt inhibition, Pim- regulates receptor tyrosine kinases up-regulation, at least in part, through a cap-independent translation. This research leads the way for further evaluation of co-targeting strategies using Pim-1 inhibitors in combination with PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitors.
