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

Cellular maintenance and development are two fundamental mechanisms regulated by the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway controls a myriad of cellular processes that are essential for normal cell functioning. Cell cycle progression, differentiation, fate determination, and migration are generally orchestrated by canonical Wnt signaling. Altered Wnt/beta-catenin signaling has been considered a promoting event for different types of cancers and the oncogenic potential of Wnt signaling have been discussed in many cancer types, including breast, colon, pancreatic as well as head and neck. Furthermore, Wnt signaling is critical for the maintenance and stemness of both the normal as well as cancer stem cells. This review sheds new light on Wnt signaling and explains how it can regulate normal physiological processes and curtail the development of cancer. It depicts the vital functions of Wnt signaling in the stem cell growth and differentiation by focusing on current druggable targets that have been ascribed by recent studies. Thus, Wnt signaling pathway retains a tremendous potential in eradicating head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
