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

Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small, double-stranded DNA viruses that are significant risk factors in the development of cancer, and HPV accounts for approximately 5% of all worldwide cancers. Recent studies using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) have demonstrated that elevated levels of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) are associated with improved survival in oropharyngeal cancers, and these elevated receptor levels were linked with human papillomavirus-positive cancers (HPV+cancers). There has been a dramatic increase in HPV-related head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HPV+HNSCCs) over the last 2 decades, and therapeutic options for this ongoing health crisis are a priority; currently, there are no antiviral therapeutics available for combatting HPV+cancers. During our TGCA studies on head and neck cancer, we had also discovered the overexpression of ERα in HPV+cancers. Here, we demonstrate that 17β-estradiol (estrogen) attenuates the growth/cell viability of HPV+cancers
