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

The remodeling of Ca(2+) signaling is a common finding in cancer pathophysiology serving the purpose of facilitating proliferation, migration, or survival of cancer cells subjected to stressful conditions. One particular facet of these adaptive changes is the alteration of Ca(2+) fluxes through the plasma membrane, as described in several studies. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the expression of different Ca(2+) channels in the plasma membrane of melanoma cells and its impact on oncogenic Ca(2+) signaling. In the last few years, new molecular components of Ca(2+) influx pathways have been identified in melanoma cells. In addition, new links between Ca(2+) homeostasis and specific cell processes important in melanoma tumor progression have been unveiled. Thus, not only do Ca(2+) channels appear to have a potential as prognostic markers, but their pharmacological blockade or gene silencing is hinted as interesting therapeutic approaches.
