Registry-linked trialAbstract read
In one paragraph

Article in Molecular cancer therapeutics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06075810 (A Phase 1 Open-Label, First-in-Human Trial of Oral MBQ-167 as Single Agent in Participants With Advanced Breast Cancer), which is not on this map. Cited by 60 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

The Rho GTPases Rac (Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate) and Cdc42 (cell division control protein 42 homolog) regulate cell functions governing cancer malignancy, including cell polarity, migration, and cell-cycle progression. Accordingly, our recently developed Rac inhibitor EHop-016 (IC
