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

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are indicated to play critical roles in drug resistance, recurrence, and metastasis of cancer. Although molecular targeted therapies have contributed to the improvement of cancer treatments by targeting vulnerable pathways indispensable to the proliferation and survival of cancer cells, no relevant therapeutic modalities targeting CSCs have been developed yet. This review focuses on MELK (maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase), TOPK (T-lymphokine-activated killer cell-originated protein kinase), and TTK (tyrosine threonine kinase), which are over-expressed frequently in human cancers and play indispensable roles in the development and maintenance of cancer stem cells. In addition, we will discuss recently developed small molecules for these protein targets, which have shown remarkable anti-tumor efficacies in several preclinical studies.
