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 cancer stem cell model postulates that tumors are hierarchically organized with a minor population, the cancer stem cells, exhibiting unlimited proliferative potential. These cells give rise to the bulk of tumor cells, which retain a limited ability to divide. Without successful targeting of cancer stem cells, tumor reemergence after therapy is likely. However, identifying target pathways essential for cancer stem cell proliferation has been challenging. Here, using a transcriptional network analysis termed GAMMA, we identified 50 genes whose correlation patterns suggested involvement in cancer stem cell division. Using RNAi depletion, we found that 21 of these target genes showed preferential growth inhibition in a breast cancer stem cell model. More detailed initial analysis of 6 of these genes revealed 4 with clear roles in the fidelity of chromosome segregation. This study reveals the strong predictive potential of transcriptional network analysis in increasing the efficiency of successful identification of novel proliferation dependencies for cancer stem cells.
