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 MEK5-ERK5 pathway is a mammalian mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade that is not well studied compared to other MAP kinase cascades. Two independent studies by Al-Ejeh et al. and Ortiz-Ruiz et al. published in Oncotarget last year concluded that ERK5 is an attractive target in triple negative breast cancer. In this perspective, we briefly describe the findings of these studies and propose the use of pharmacological inhibition of ERK5 in combination with chemotherapy against triple negative breast cancer because MEK5-ERK5 overexpression associates with poor survival of patients treated with chemotherapy.
