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

Nemo-like kinase (NLK) is an evolutionarily conserved mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-related kinase that is highly expressed in neural tissues and minimally detected in others. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that NLK exerts a pivotal role in cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis via regulation of a variety of transcriptional molecules. The results of recent studies have shown that aberrant expression of NLK is significantly associated with the initiation and progression of various types of human cancers, as well as clinicopathologic features and survival rate. NLK is gradually considered as a potential tumor suppressor or an oncogene depending on the tumor system, and silencing or upregulating of NLK may provide an effective therapeutic approach against tumors. In this review, we will make a summary on the comprehensive roles of NLK in the regulation of various cancers.
