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

Resistance to caspase-dependent apoptosis is often responsible for treatment failures in cancer. Finding novel therapeutic strategies that can activate alternative cell death programs appears to be appealing. Necroptosis is a form of programmed necrosis that occurs under caspase-deficient conditions. This alternative form of cell death has recently emerged as a potential anticancer therapy that could overcome apoptosis resistance. A growing understanding of the molecular events triggering necroptosis helped to examine its implication in cancer development and to define new therapeutic strategies. Genetic and proteomic analysis suggest that necroptosis is deregulated in many cancers. Various preclinical and clinical compounds induced necroptosis and have demonstrated significant therapeutic efficacy. Moreover, accumulating evidence has shown that necroptosis promotes anticancer immune response. A better knowledge of the cascade of events regulating necroptosis is expected to assess the feasibility of its therapeutic exploitation for cancer therapy.
