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

Highly conserved throughout evolution, the hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway has been demonstrated to be involved in embryonic development, stem cell maintenance and tissue homeostasis in animals ranging from invertebrates to vertebrates. In the human body, a variety of cancer types are associated with the aberrantly activated Hh signalling pathway. Multiple studies have revealed suppressor of fused (Sufu) as a key negative regulator of this signalling pathway. In vertebrates, Sufu primarily functions as a tumor suppressor factor by interacting with and inhibiting glioma-associated oncogene homologues (GLIs), which are the terminal transcription factors of the Hh signalling pathway and belong to the Kruppel family of zinc finger proteins; by contrast, the regulation of Sufu itself remains relatively unclear. In the present review article, we focus on the effects of Sufu on the Hh signalling pathway in tumourigenesis and the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of GLI by Sufu. In addition, the factors modulating the activity of Sufu at post-transcriptional levels are also discussed.
